Tip - Windows Mobile 6 Standard / Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone

In Windows Mobile 6/Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone, the Start menu is always shown in GridView. However, you can also switch it to ListView, but this is not easily performed by the end user. If you are a developer, you can use the Remote Registry Editor (shipped as part of Visual Studio 2005) to modify the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\StartMenu

Set the GridView DWORD Value = 1 for GridView and 0 for ListView.
