Ah yes, the "joys" of "interesting" GUI design. I've worked with Samsung printers, and generally not been *too* bothered by the GUI - but then I'm used to working with all sorts of stuff, some good, some ... well lets just say "not very good".

The Technicolor router I had the misfortune to work with today is another matter - should be one of those : first day in the UI design class, tutor shows students a hall of shame, with the sage words "here's how not to do it". Took obfuscation of useful stuff to a whole new level I've not seen for some time.
