Hi.
Here's a little tip. It is possible to create shortcuts for folders and files on the desktop by using MicroB.
This relys on the discovery of My-Maemo.com, who showed that you can access the filesystem in MicroB by typing file:/// in the url-bar.

Actually, you can type just ///
Then navigate to a folder and simply create a bookmark, which you can later add to the desktop in a normal fashion.
To make a shortcut for a file, create a bookmark for the folder, then manual edit the url to point at the file.
It works for me, and I now have one-click access to ex. a pdf-file from the desktop.
Enjoy.
