I've applied Eben's mockup, I also tried to show the connection errors using an alert inside the palette. This solution has the problem that Tomeu said: when user clicks "connect", the palette is hidden and users could miss the notification. Is a solution that doesn't look nice, because the palette should resize to show the errors. <div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Feb 21, 2010 at 12:27 PM, Tomeu Vizoso <<a href="mailto:tomeu@tomeuvizoso.net">tomeu@tomeuvizoso.net</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="im">On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 16:41, Eben Eliason <<a href="mailto:eben.eliason@gmail.com">eben.eliason@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 2:27 PM, Daniel Castelo > <<a href="mailto:dcastelo@plan.ceibal.edu.uy">dcastelo@plan.ceibal.edu.uy</a>> wrote: >> Hi, today we don't show all the 3G connection errors.
