Unlike a few months back, N97 now has a lot of homescreen widgets and hardly and space to put them.

I’m currently using the clock widget, two shortcut bar, favourite contacts, music player and email.
I want to add so much more. I want to add Nokia Bots, accuweather, calendar, gravity, share location, techbuzz widget etc. But there is only one homescreen which holds six widgets.

I asked Steve Litchfield and Tim Salmon if Nokia would add multiple homescreen in future firmware update. They said it is possible but they doubt it.

Sense UI is so cool with seven homescreen.

I would be satisfied if Nokia added two more homescreen to N97.

    yea i want multiple home screens, would really like that ;)

    that is a major new feature in the Nokia N8 so I don’t thing it would be available in the N97.

    its horrible that they are not able to upgrade the N97 to a reasonable smartphone… multiple homscreens would be the easiest to start with!

  • vinitneo

    yes. multiple home screen would be really good… it would make using N97 really easier. but it is not going to be available for N97 cause it is the big new feature of N8

    Multiple homescreens? The thing can't even handle ONE properly. It's just way too crippled by the low-end CPU and RAM in it, something Nokia's fucked up big time. So, I don't think it's gonna get any such feature added.

  • vinitneo

    true and the other reason is – it is the 'big, new, awesome' feature of N8

    …and you thought the “iphone was left in a bar and now the bars have left the iphone” line was ironic…
