It needs investigation. If a resolution can be found, I'll try to post about it here. hchwa, that’s not something I know off the top of my head. It needs investigation.

Does it not have some kind of button that says Settings? My guess is that's where it would be. And I think you're right on the Calendar app. It always starts in the same view. I don't think it has settings that let you say "remember my last view". I haven’t spent a lot of time with the RSS app, so I’m not sure. Does it not have some kind of button that says Settings?

Do you have any other customization tips for more apps? For instance, the RSS Feeds app seems entirely incapable of deleting feeds once they are added. And the Calendar doesn't remember which view (month or week) you selected last time. Any hints on these or other apps? Thanks I’m starting to use some of the TS 3.0 apps for the first time.

Webpage tiles are new instances of the TouchSmart browser (they get placed in the bottom row after creation), even though the simplified creation mechanism pulls from the IE Favorites to present a list to pick from.

My 600xt should be here in a week. Now I have a head start on the inevitable customization. A couple of questions. What happens when you use a tile that you create from a program (for instance Notepad)? Does it minimize the TouchSmart software and launch in Windows? What about a tile from a web page? Does it launch in the browser in the TouchSmart software? Thanks for this writeup. My 600xt should be here in a week. Now I have a head start on the inevitable customization.
