Custom menu for OziExplorer, beta testers wanted

There are a few alternatives out there, some with really nice features but all have the lack of support for many of our native map formats.
Why get annoyed if the solution might be so easy as creating our own Ozi interface?

I was wondering if there would be an interest in a new skin for the Android version?
For ease of use I would opt for the Hema layout.
So people coming from the HN devices should be able to get used to the new layout pretty easy.
It is a very time consuming project and since my Droid is in 1280x800 I would start with that resolution and might add another in the future.
I would like to get some feedback from Hema owners in regards to the general easy of use and what might need some changing.

On the other hand some might prefer a very basic interface, so if you are one of those users please feel free to rant what is bad in Ozi and would you think would be ideal for the bare essentials.

Once I got all the symbols converted I will upload some screenshots of the progress, but give me a bit of time ;)

Edit:
Managed to get the symbols working now :)
Screens 1 to 8 as follows:

That means I need beta tester now - who is volunteering??? :)
To make it interesting I will only consider changes submitted by my testers.
In the final version I will include all nicknames from supporting testers in the settings screen.
This way my tester can be sure their name will be known all over the world ;)

Download the archive, password: downunder
Please unpack the archive to your PC.
Copy the new menu file to your Ozi folder on the device.
To use it go into the main menu,
Operation,
General,
Load Page file (landscape),
select the new menu file.

Play with it, test it and report back what you like or think needs changing.
Please keep in mind that no all features we know from the CE version are available in the current Android version.
That's why some functions are missing.
If the features become available I will update the menu accordingly.

Still having problem to make the background images show up the device, but I'm confident to get that sorted as well.
Once done I will upload the menu.
