Like you, I get the sleekness factor. On the other hand, I also think that developers are going a little too far in hiding functionality in order to create a modern looking GUI. It's hard to discover features that aren't visible on screen or in the documentation after all![/QUOTE]

I have to agree with that. I can see the desire to remove the menu icon and put info in its place, but sometimes it feels like they are going to far. From a personal point of view, I can't work out why I am OK with no menu icon and using a long press on the library list, but I don't find it natural on the annotations list.[/QUOTE]

I had the mistaken impression that an underline was the indication of a possible action?
