Super cramped? On my Sage, the bar with Home, My Books, My Notebooks, Discover, More and NickelMenu has the icons on 20mm centers with 10mm from the edge to the first icon on either side (the screen is approximately 122mm wide). For non-metric types, 10mm is ~0.4" and 20mm is ~0.79". On a Libra Colour, the screen is about 107mm wide and the spacing is reduced by about 13% whereas for a 6" Kobo ereader, the screen is about 90mm wide but icon spacing is actually increased to 17 mm since there are only 5 icons on the bar since it does not support a stylus and so no My Notebooks icon is to be seen.
