But if it's touchable interface (such as iphone), it maybe different, while there's two hands hold the device, and it maybe easier for operation ( but i suspect the old palm's grid interface, such as Palm Tx, works better on this condition ) Cheers, -- Jarod On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 1:34 PM, Troy Gardner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I love radial / orbital menus which are related to pie.
