I don't think there's any way you're going to backlight the icons on
the small buttons.  The icons should be above the buttons.  My first
choice would definitely be |< and >|, and FF/Rew could be added if
space permits and it's felt that they're important.

I would make all control labeling white on the black faceplate and
black on the silver face.

Spacing of the small buttons should be even.  Keep the gap between the
>, ||, |<, and >| and the others, but all other spacing should be
even.

Add a 'Size' button.  Shuffle and repeat should be either grouped
together or placed on the left end of the right group.  Size,
Brightness and Now Playing should be grouped together in the same order
as they appear on the remote (for those already familiar with the
remote).

Don't make this change, but I'd lobby that the 'Play' button should as
prominent as the + (though I'm not sure what a clean layout of the four
larget buttons would be).  A lot of people don't even use dynamic
playlists - they just find an album, track or saved playlist and hit
'Play'.

I still think the large buttons should be to the right of the wheel -
especially important to have the left/right buttons near the wheel.
