Ah. I've never had a phone that did that.
How many apps would the standard geek have on their phone? How are they managed? On the Cliq, so far I can either have the icon on one of the five desktops, or all flat in one location.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Folders for apps, I assume.
This. Games. Or the umpty-dozen productivity/listmaking gadgets I can't resist. Or the fucking useless stuff I'll never use but can't delete because it came with the phone and Apple has a deal with someone. Stocks App I'm Looking At You.

Shitloads. You swipe left/right to go from page to page. You can organize them by having a page act as a folder, but that's not exactly ideal.

Are they alphabetically listed?
Actually, now that I think about it, Symbian apps were foldered, but they were also nested way deep. Apart from the ones hotlinked at the top level, it was really hard to get to shit. Annoying interface.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
right. and Jon's way is what I've been doing on the touch. Now, you can have up to 2160 apps.
I won't have that many, but I can see myself getting up to 100-120

amy is right about the Stocks app. Useless.

You can arrange them however you like. You hold down an app icon and all the icons start jiggling. Then you can drag any of them wherever you like.

That's better than Android Cliq, as far as I can work out.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Annoyingly I can't work out how to bluetooth files over to my Android phone
I haven't much experience with it on my Droid, but you might check out Bluetooth File Transfer and see if it works on the Cliq.

I have 80 apps now. I don't really think in terms of the total number, but more than 5 screens and I stop having an easy feel for where to find something. I don't see going up to a whole lot more apps but grouping and labeling them thematically would be killer.
