2.2 InfoBoxes
The information displayed in the InfoBox fields can be selected
from a wide variety of options (listed in Chapter 10). These fields
are also used to set user configurable variables, for example the
MacCready setting.
The specific number and layout of the InfoBox grid depends on
the screen orientation and the device’s display size. For a 320x240
display Pocket PC in portrait mode, there are four InfoBoxes above
and four InfoBoxes below the map display. For landscape mode,
there are 9 InfoBoxes to the right of the map display.
