The start menu icons are a problem of windows mobile 6.5 they did however fix this in 6.5.3 which allowed for drag and drop. Honestly though your the first person ive herd of making an issue of this on an htc phone considering the UI allows you to dedicate programs to easily available spots.
So if I'm just now ordering a Tilt 2, will it have the upgraded win mobile 6.5.3? If not, do you know how/where I can get it? And just to confirm, with this upgrade, it allows you to drag & drop the icons to reorder them? Thanks!!
