I really like it.

IMHO, the 'home' button should be on the buttons row (check with your 
usability department).

As I said before, buttons with the same width would be nice. If you are 
using <table> to create the buttons, try to attach a  'width' property to 
the button <TD> cell (with a value expressed in 'em' units), like this:

td.buttons {
   text-align: center;
   width: 20em;
}

What do you think Jim ?
