The Home screen provides you with a weather clock that shows the time and weather of your current location and displays your upcoming appointment. Tap the respective item when you want to change the weather clock to display another location, update the weather information, or access the Calendar.
Essential features that you commonly use, such as People, Messages, Mail, Internet, and more, are easily accessed up front on the Home screen. The tabs at the bottom of the Home screen correspond to the different phone features. Simply press and hold on the active tab and then slide your finger right or left
to the feature you want to use. You can also directly tap a tab.
You can also personalize the Home screen with an animated or picture wallpaper (by tapping Menu > Home Wallpaper), rearrange the tabs, as well as add quick links to people who matter most to you, your favorite websites, and applications.
For more information about using the Home screen, see Chapter 3.
