Can I lock desktop icons on X10 Mini Pro? Is it possible to lock the icons &amp; widgets (i.e. disable the long-press-to-move function) on the Sony Ericsson X10 mini pro?

I saw this question - Lock widgets in place - but it seems i may need to root the phone, and besides this issue, i am quite happy with the standard user interface.
It would seem as the only solution is to install ADW Launcher, as suggested in the other question.
And no, you don't need root to install ADW Launcher.

If you do decide to change launcher to ADW Launcher, Here's a link on how to lock the screen on the Complete guide to ADW.Launcher
