still can't comment on how it looks, i hope to have time to try it today.
in general i agree it should behave quite differently with diffrent type of 
medis, but i would also like being able to browse in a folder and being able to 
see anything it could contain, regardless if it's audio/video/pictures 
whatever, so it wouldn't be a type in particular..

also i feel that defining a set of "modes" this way it can be quite rigid. i 
can see in the future people wanting to write plugins to make it do radically 
different types of things. i would like for instance being able to browse 
launchers of applications to be able to have a "games" section for instance and 
i think it would be possible only by keeping things as more generic as possible.

when i'll have played a bit with it i will have clearer ideas perhaps. however 
i do think the general idea is correct, a rigid set of "modes" is a bit too 
much however
