Home screen

The Home screen is the starting point of your phone. You can personalise the Home screen
by adding widgets, or by changing the wallpaper and the applications in the corners.
When you add more than one widget, the Home screen extends beyond the screen width.
The corners on the Home screen are used to access applications or bookmarks quickly.
You can add any application or bookmark to the corners.
When you go to the Home screen, some applications may continue to run in the background. If
you do not want applications to run in the background, you should exit each application you have
opened before going to the Home screen.

that application, for example the Sony Ericsson Timescape™ widget displays incoming
messages and the Media widget allows you to start the music directly.
