I found some interesting things about the interactions in the Home Screen.  The Launcher assumes a CellX and CellY of 4 even though we have a maximum x and y of 256.  So with the default screen set to 1 of the HomeScreen application and three cells defined that should mean that cell4 would be the last cell in the y postion of 1 and cell5 should be x=1 y=2.

Now we have a decion should the defaultScreen be an edge cell as in 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, or 13 or should the defaultScreen be a middle cell such as 2,3,6,7,10, 11, 14, or 15?
