Most of the time, I can simply use my finger. NFL Mobile forces > me to take out the stylus because it is a web site but requires Wide view (no > 5-way support in this mode) and it has tiny icons. "The right tool for the job". I use the stylus for most games, because the games I have work best with a stylus, even those that do work with the 5-Way. I usually use the 5-Way and keyboard to launch apps, but I need to use the stylus to use any of ZLauncher's gadgets. Other apps, it's roughly 50/50. Using the 5-Way to scroll to and then select something takes a long time when there are lots of items on the screen, whereas with the stylus and can just tap where I need to and move on. I always use the 5-Way when checking things off in my shopping lists in ListPro, but I need to use the stylus to open an item to edit its entry. Likewise, I use the buttons to move around in DateBk and mark things done, but it's faster to use the stylus when creating and editing an appointment. -- Jeffrey Kaplan www.gordol.org The from userid is killfiled Send personal mail to gordol "On the contrary - it scares the hell out of me, but what better way to go out than in the cause of advancing scientific knowledge?"
