You may have noticed by the BBCi team have made a few changes to the Freeview service...
- Original 'More...' and '...Previous' buttons changed to 'more...' and '...previous'
- Horoscopes buttons are now '1 Line' size rather than '2 Line' size so less scrollig needed
- Film Reviews now on 'half page' panel rather than 'full page' panel so you can still see the TV picyures (+ minor text colour changes)
- Regional Sport now on 'half page' panel like 'UK Regions' (which i think should really be called 'Regional News' to be consistant)
- On the News Index the button linking to the multiscreen is now called 'Latest News' instead of 'News Multiscreen' like everywhere else on the service (are they hoping people wont realise slecting it takes them off the main service into the multiscreen application by doing this?)
- Help Section has now changed back to being blue rather than grey and red, exept they forgot to change the 'Welcome to BBCi' graphic back to blue so its still in grey!
- Original 'More...' and '...Previous' buttons changed to 'more...' and '...previous'
- Horoscopes buttons are now '1 Line' size rather than '2 Line' size so less scrollig needed

BBC News Dual Screen
Mine still says 'news multiscreens' on BBC ONE main menu???
I find white on light blue very difficult to read. Teletext use it even more, notable on the TV guide.
The thing I want most from the text service is the news. After pressing the "Text" button on my remote I should get an option to go to the News menu. But no such option exists. I have to type 102 to get to it.
The whole point of text is being able to carry on watching a program while reading it, not to take me off to a completely different channel.
Is there anywher on the BBC's website where we can complain about this?
When they removed other parts like 'TV Pick of the Day' and 'Soaps Update' they blamed Ceefax for stopping producing these sections, they cant use that excuse this time as Ceefax still has movie reviews plus music reviews plus game reviews (none of those BBCi either!)
