Thanks for the response hackbod. However, the trackball left and right
events are not being handled by the G1--using the same code that works
in the emulator.
It would be nice to replace
"else if KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_LEFT"
with "onEvent.TRACKBALL_LEFT" or something similar, but it doesn't
work that way. I think you have to specify using the x-axis as a
relative position, and I'm not sure how it's done.
Thanks again.
