Hi...
Expert+ is an enhancement to the Z's operating system, which among
other things, speeds the Z up, which is nice, (saves battery life, too),
allows you to have multiple applications open, with resizable windows,
which you can either layer, or reduce the ones you are not immediately
working with to icons. Actually, there's more to it than that, but those
are the reasons why I appreciate Expert+ the most.
At times I find myself having to make multiple phone calls, and either check
things off on my To Do list, or make notes in the notebook, and Expert+
makes it much more pleasant, being able to go from my phone book to my note
book to my date book, with one tap, and happens QUICK- you're not waiting
for one thing to close, and the next to get activated.
Usually on my Z I have a clock in the upper right hand corner, with my
date book under that, resized to the upper third of the screen, so I
can see at a glance anything I have going on that day, and then whatever
app I'm working on takes up the lower two-thirds screen.
Resizable windows are nice unto themselves- you can move things around,
so you don't put wear on particular areas of the screen that you use
often.
In reference to the question on zoomcom- I have a copy which I've not been
able to work, I use ZDos, which works great.
Hope this helps
