I don't understand why these two groups aren't conflated into one, and no, you can't alter the structure. Once you are experienced with the phone it's probably not a significant point, but there is a definite learning curve.

One of the most feature packed phones around

Sony Ericssson's W910i Walkman is much easier to use.
