About the User Interface
The user interface for the Microsoft® Windows® Mobile 6.5 operating
system is different from previous versions of Windows. The interface is
touch-friendly and easier to navigate. Use the following sections to
understand how to interact with Windows Mobile 6.5.
About the Home Screen
When you turn on your mobile computer, the Home screen is the first
screen that appears. The Home screen contains three navigation bars:
the Title bar, the horizontal scroll, and the Tile bar.
The Windows Mobile 6.5 Home Screen
Use the Title bar icons to view the current status of information such
as signal strength and battery power remaining. For more information
on the Title bar icons, see “Title Bar Status Icons” on page 20.
A horizontal scroll appears when you tap an icon in the Title bar. This
horizontal scroll makes it easy to access the applications associated
with the Tile bar icons. The horizontal scroll also contains a magnifier
which improves the touch experience by making parts of the screen
large enough to access with your finger.
