About the Home Screen
When you turn on your mobile computer, the Home screen is the first

the Title bar, the horizontal scroll bar, and the Tile bar.
The Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Home Screen
Use the Title bar icons to view the current status of information such 
as signal strength and battery power remaining. For more information 
on the Title bar icons, see “Title Bar Status Icons” on page 42.
A horizontal scroll bar appears when you tap an icon in the Title bar. 
This horizontal scroll bar makes it easy to access the applications 
associated with the Tile bar icons. The horizontal scroll bar also 
contains a magnifier which improves the touch experience by making 
parts of the screen large enough to tap with your finger.
