You can complain, but it won't do any good. Poser doesn't make this check; the
Palm OS does.

The full width is not a *requirement*. It's a design guideline. PalmOS apps look
nice and are easy to use because they always look the
same. Interface is never different. The design guidelines give you a path to
follow if you want to give this good look and feel to
your application.

PalmOS won't restrict you if you want to create something different, though. I
think it's the correct approach. You can complain about
not being able to turn off this check on Poser, so you could test non-standard
applications...
