(In reply to comment #3) > Created an attachment (id=450777) [details] > v1 wizard I think we want the Computer Name to be above the data types drop down so it doesn't get pushed too far down if the user selects custom settings, but other than that this looks good. Alex - any thoughts/comments on the UI for giving your devices friendly names?
Current position is fine, the "sync everything" option needs to capture the user's attention. Not so that they necessarily change it, but so that they are clear that everything is being synced.
pref window location is wrong, IMO, it should be paired with the sync prefs, not with the account details. If we're going to split the pane, we should use the divisions consistently. I think I disagree with Alex, since I don't think the "we'll sync everything" message is as important as exposing the computer name. Changing the computer name to something recognizable is a key thing we want users to do, especially in time for the iPhone launch. This is pretty unpolished, the widths are inconsistent and make the UI feel more cluttered...

http://hg.mozilla.org/services/fx-sync/rev/da5b60ff989d Allow setting of the computer name during Firefox account setup and from prefs. Also allow setting device name from Fennec prefs. Fix up strings for Fennec.
