to quote myself in the first mail from this thread:

"what you're running into is that you can't see all the text that would be 
useful to make a decision on visual scan."

so .. instead of going around and around agreeing with each other, let's 
brainstorm / mockup concepts that:

a) aren't boring
b) are effective
c) show more than three options at a time
d) don't resort to 22px high line items

i'd start it off, but i'm already out of time today. i'll try and work on this 
over the next week though.
