In addition there are also 5 MRU apps which are different from the apps already preselected. On a 240 screen they are small icons on top of the start menu, and on a 320 screen they are added to the list as full entries.
It's true I seem to have forgot some of the precise details, but I certainly remember the frustration! If it works fine for some that's great, all I'm saying is it didn't for me (and as other posts in this thread indicate, I'm certainly not the only one).
