Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / ATT Wireless / December 2007iPhone Tip Two-fingered Scrolling
iPhone 101: Two-fingered Scrolling Posted Dec 13th 2007 5:00PM by Erica Sadun Everyone knows that you can use a single finger to scroll web pages in Mobile Safari but it's less well known that you can use two fingers to scroll frames and other subpage elements. Normally, on personal computers, you use a separate scroll bar for webpage frames. On the iPhone and iPod touch, these scroll bars do not appear and the content expands to fill the frame set area. By using two fingers at once, you tell Mobile Safari to scroll the element rather than then entire page. I find this especially useful when filling out forms with scrolling selections such as when I do blog posts and need to add categories. MacBook Pro User said... You can scroll with two fingers in any area of the interface already; however, Mobile Safari switches when you reach a subpage element. This is somethiing you can't do with any of those other phones with touch screens . Do you think this could be another reason the iPhone is so much fun? 4phun <vic.healey@gmail.com> wrote in news:0e93b3f1-ac5d-412b-acf2- 71d74a5c6bfe@d4g2000prg.googlegroups.com: > iPhone 101: Two-fingered Scrolling > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > touch screens .

Point is that Voyager is huge. It would be most certainly be the bulge in men's pants that women DON'T find attractive. And what is? The wallet, of course.

The wallet, of course. With the iphone costing 100-200 more, you won't have the above wallet. TCOO down the road, Battery replacement's, I can see that wallet is now thin as paper. Specs for apple iphone. Size and weight a.. Height: 4.5 inches (115 mm) b.. Width: 2.4 inches (61 mm) c.. Depth: 0.46 inch (11.6 mm) d.. Weight: 4.8 ounces (135 grams) Specs for the Voyager a..

Over all, I would say there close. > To reply by email, remove the word "space" > It would be most certainly be the bulge in men's pants that women DON'T > find attractive. You never know...some girls are geek groupies that are turned on by the smell of freshly unspooled CAT5 cable, the quiet sound of a Type 101 impact tool, telescoping push poles, the feel of cable pulling lubricant, the many uses of Velcro. I could go on, but my boyfriend is giving me a funny look. > > It would be most certainly be the bulge in men's pants that women DON'T > > find attractive.
