Menu Navigation

This section covers some basics of navigating the device menus, which should be common to most of the user interface. A few specific examples are shown, but the concepts should apply everywhere.

Main Menu

To get to the main menu, press the key from the home screen. The main menu is an example of an item list menu, which is the most common way of selecting an item from a list.
