Arrange Icons on the iPhone/iPod touch Home Screens

Unhappy with the arrangement of your icons? You can move them around as follows: First, hold down on any Home screen icon until all the icons wiggle. Now, drag the icons to their desired locations (drag left or right to get to other screens). Finally, press the physical Home button on your device. (Unlike earlier releases, iPhone Software 2.1 doesn't move just-updated apps to the end of your Home screens, so your icons should be more stationary once you've installed the update.)

Remember that you can replace Apple's default icons in the four persistent spots at the bottom of the screen with your four most-used apps!

Testing 56K

Testing 56K -- Looking to buy a 56K modem? Before you purchase, there is something you can do to find out whether or not your current phone line will support a faster speed (see Speed Jockeys on the Internet: Flying at 56K in NetBITS-008). Stan Teters <stan.teters@penguin.com> wrote in to tell us about several Web pages with testing phone numbers for both kinds of 56K modems. The test isn't perfect, but it's easier than buying a modem first, finding it won't go very fast, and returning it. [GF]
