Simplify Delivery Address entry for Guest Checkout

Does anyone know of a way to simplify delivery address entry? For guest checkout? Without all of the language concerning an "address book" and "account menu"?

I suppose I can dig in and re-program/format the delivery address page, but it seems like alot of trouble if there is a switch somewhere that makes it easy.

Not sure why there can't just be some extra fields on the guestco page to handle this in one shot instead of complicating the checkout workflow by jumping to a special delivery address page.

Thanks,
Mike

Re: Simplify Delivery Address entry for Guest Checkout

yes...this would a nice mod...a 'guest' should not be confused with the use of 'address book' talk since they don't have one...

A guest may still want/need the address book if they are ordering multiple products and having them shipped to multiple destinations.  Removing that option would reduce their choices.

On the other hand, the application setting "Allowed Shipping Addresses" does exactly this (ie reduce their choices), and is built into the application. I have it set to "Allow Shipping to Billing Address Only", therefore the "Delivery Address Book" is redundant. But I can't find out how to remove this menu option from the "Account Menu" (I also want to remove "email subscriptions" as we don't use these either.) How do you edit the "Account Menu"?

To answer my own question:
To remove the Delivery Address book set "Manage Application Settings" -> "Show Delivery Address Book" to no.
Then in "Manage XHTML Includes" -> "Account Menu (Logged Out)" comment out "<!--<li><a href="<?php print $link_gsubscript; ?>" title="Email Subscriptions">Email Subscriptions</a></li>-->"
As other poster have commented, it would be nice to be able to disable the subscriptions completely with just one selection choice.
