No, not flash. On their homepage that comes up on my desktop, there is no cover flow anything, just a bad matrix of products. Yech! On my iPhone, however, it has a sliding horizontal area in the middle. Like the Apple products pages do at the top.
This is what I meant by adding a link on the left and right to jump a page at a time with your carousel cover flow. Limit the amount of icons that show up on the left/right of the main center icon so they are actually tappable, and put the same type of left/right links that amazon has. -=R On 11/2/07 12:31 PM, "AwayBBL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > yeah, theirs is a flash version > > On Nov 2, 2:52 pm, Chuck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> amazon.com's home page has a cover flow like thing that rotates >> products.
