Hi Mark. You are reading braille exactly as i am reading. I have asked apple for the possibility to reverse paning buttons since IOS 4, but nothing hapens.
I am really disappointed with apple in this case. The only thing I really like about focus 40 blue is these whiz wheels or a sort of rocker buttons that they have been changed to in the new focus.
