well, i didn't like 'touch strip/pad' idea at first, but maybe it can be used
for some kind of poor
multi-touch feature ;-) hold one finger in some point of the screen and slide
with another finger on
touch strip and screen rotates/images zoom in/mp3 rewinds... a key for
usability of this idea

You need external power, a plug that makes the phone unusable as an

That's exactly what I already was talking about in the dasher-thread,
because this touchpad would be a cool device to control different things,
especially for dasher text-input in 1D-mode (or 2D). Glad that you found a

The only possible issue is those people who are left-handed. Perhaps a

No, the PSP stick is crap. We don't really need anything analog, the
touchscreen does that fine. What we could use are some decent, solid
buttons and/or a d-pad.
I could also see some applications for a Blackberry style wheel, for
example volume control and scrolling. I don't think using a
Yes, a kind of double rocker-push-button (is there a correct english word?
^^) would be fine, too.
Not two buttons, but one button with 2 contacts (one on each side) and a
neutral position in mid.
Here's a picture I found via google, to imagine what I mean:

If FIC doesn't want to make it, you can try and build it for yourself.
There's SPI and I2C available as test/contact/solder pads on the
GTA01Bv4 PCB IIRC. (hmm, too much abbreviations?)

Ok, there seems to be 2 other possibilities, a rocker switch and a scroll wheel.
Rocker switch: Have you ever used a cheap mouse with a rocker switch instead of
a scroll wheel? If you have then you know how limited they are. They simply do
not offer the same amount of control a scroll wheel or
