Unfortunately, the primary use of my stylus is to do a soft reset when
the Treo 650 freezes :-( -- otherwise, I find my finger works fine on
the screen for practically everything except selecting text, a couple
of time-wasting games, and positioning the cursor to fill in a field
on a webpage.  The 5-way nav is slower when going to one field among
many on a page.

web site but requires Wide view (no 5-way support in this mode) and it
has tiny icons.
