I had to deal with a Wayteq PNA on the weekend running XCSoar 6.3.3 and I have to admit that the double click behaviour on the old resistive touchscreen was rather bad. Being used to the touchscreen of the Streak it took me at least five tries to get into the menu, so I would have to agree that there seems to be a problem. Unfortunatly I don't have the Wayteq available anymore, but I will try to improve the double click timeout for the Map Items dialog and I would love to get some feedback once XCSoar 6.3.4 is released.
