Let me thank you once again for this invaluable tip, John! I somehow 
stumbled across 'Turn off the Speed Dial search box' (or words to 
that effect), and was delighted to get rid of that curiously 
useless-seeming and space-consuming item - and then found, when I 
came to do the same in my netbook, that I couldn't for the life of me 
find my way back to it. I had never even heard of the Preferences 
Editor before your message arrived! Using your method, however, I 
soon found the spot simply by searching for 'search'. Emptying the 
Speed Dial Search Type box has deleted the wretched thing and made 
all my Speed Dial buttons bigger and better!

Now to go to the website and find the wishlist page. I can't 
understand why we don't have the option of a 5 x 3 grid on the Speed Dial.

Cheers,

Harry
