Question does anyone think the 'mEnu' button is weird?

not really a big deal, but.. why is the menu button 'mEnu'. perhaps the cost of capital E's was down that day they made the template?

Yeah, it sucks. And the stupid "chimney" on the home button pisses me off too. It looks more like a problem then design... like a line of the black part got scraped off.

...and the curvy arrow.

...and the cut in the magnifying glass.

Who ever designed those bottom buttons should be fired! Actually I take that back... whoever approved the design for those bottom buttons should be fired!!!

Default mEnu

The capitol E on the mEnu button goes all the way back to the original mytouch. I never noticed it until a customer pointed it out on the huge in store poster right behind me.

haha, i've never would've noticed any of these things if you guys hadn't pointed them out. I actually like the curvy arrow, cut in the magnifying glass and the chimney. Only thing that looks weird, or out of place, is the mEnu button.

The E has to be like that because the letters are cut outs and the lower case e would leave that little bit inside the semi-circle cut off and so it wouldn't work. I didn't notice this til this post and it was driving me a little nuts but now I think what I said is reasonable. I rather like it anyway.

I kept staring at the E. Probably spent a good hour in total trying to figure out what was off about it. Didn't even notice.
