Screen Layout
-------------

The screen layout of this program from top to bottom and left to right
has the following elements (in landscape mode):

++ Title:
-- The name of the application "State Capitals".

++ Map:
-- A map of the continental United States.

++ "Alaska" button:
-- A button, which when tapped gives info on Alaska.

++ "Hawaii" button:
-- A button, which when tapped gives info on Hawaii.

++ Info button:
-- A button, which when tapped will cause some basic info about
"Animal Sounds" to be displayed.

++ Close box:
-- Closes "State Capitals".


Caveats:
--------

* "State Capitals" may not work well on a screen set to lower contrast.

* It's hard to tap on a small state.

* The icon in the extras drawer is a little too tall.

* Some irregularly shaped states can't be tapped everywhere, such as
the Texas panhandle.

* Alaska and Hawaii do not have a map outlines, just buttons.  My apologies
to the 49th and 50th states.

* Only tested on Newton MP 100.
