You can mod menu in SE UI. But can you have icon packs in SE UI? ie. Can each theme have its own different icon pack?
Yes you can mod SE icons, but not as part of a theme, only as part of a file system menu mod. So you need to hack the phone with xs++ or far manager. Since these are "third party apps" I think it's still fair to include menu modding. It's also possible to setup a system whereby you can change menu's just by restarting the phone (as opposed to using a computer to hack into the handset everytime you want a new menu)
Here is my current menu, a 1x6 column with my own menu arrangement and icons. I've re-sorted everything into sub menus to leave my main menu uncluttered
However, it's still easier to change menu's/icons etc in s60 (same with WM). WM and s60 win on menu customising still. However in the non-smartphone class SE's native customisation and shortcut system is one of the most flexible I've seen for a non-smart os.

Going thru all these trouble just to get something that is basic functionality offered by S60..
. That's why SE should drop the A** platform and devote their time to create a new platform based on a full OS.
Even now, there are S60 phones which are cheaper than SE mid/high end phones. And we have ridiculous red-faced situation when a much cheaper S60 phone beats the SE flagship in UI and (software) capabilities.

I still prefer the SE UI, all I've changed is the menu arrangement, all the other SE UI features are intact. My K800 suits me perfectly for now. Once K850 firmware shapes up I'll migrate to K850. Java suits my application needs.
But for smartphones, you ought to know by now, I'm a TS user
My current smartphone is a WM device. Neither SE nor Nokia smartphones suit my needs for an all in one device. Nokia has the UI I dislike and no touchscreen as yet. SE has no TS device with a 5MP camera so my next upgrade will be to K850 rather than a P1 or W960 (though both phones appeal to me). That leaves me still using my WM devices for smartphones needs.
Since I can leave my laptop at home now that I have the HP ipaq with wifi, I'm still better off than I was before so it's no great deal to carry both devices. Combining camera mp3 player and phone in one deivce is enough convergence for me for now.

I like the fact that on s60 you can totaly change the menu and move your apps to different Folders and add different folders in the Menu etc. . . Also the 6-Standy By shortcuts and that great MULTIMEDIA MENU button on N80 and other s60v3 os9 phones have, if i press it for a long time it activates Music Player and if i press it normaly i get a list of 4-Shortcuts GREAT AND i can change the two softkeys to whatever apps i want, all in all 13-shortcuts to my 13 fav apps lol! And another thing is the great 3D games you get for Symbian s60 which A200 cant even touch!

OSE(the OS on which SE base their OSs) supports VGA, yes......
For nearly two years now, actually - my
904SH(April '06) is that very OS/resolution......
