needed for day-to-day operations are quickly and easily accessible while less frequently used
functions are located deeper in the menu system. The user interface is designed to be intuitive to
use and will not require a large learning curve for the average user. The second design principle
for MobiLink is to be easily customizable in order to be able to meet the various requirements of a
global market.
