Dianne, Behavior of the Status bar expanded view (and search dialog) is same even in android 2.0 (Eclair - build sdk from source). They don't cover entire screen if I run emulator with 480x800 (160dpi) skin. seems like I'm missing something obvious here, but not able to locate it. Can't we have other then 240 dpi for larger screens?
