16:44.22arnnnnin viewing pdf, can zaurus scroll the page   inch by inch  with using only one hand? (without using stylus)
16:51.06Varoudisarnnnn, use your finger :)
16:51.26arnnnnVaroudis, can it does that? can it scroll pdf using arrows key ?
16:51.52Varoudisfinger on screen :)
16:52.11Varoudisor the scroll keys in the back of Z
16:52.43arnnnnVaroudis, what does the arrows key on the right bottom corner do then ?
16:52.43Varoudisim not sure
16:52.49arnnnnit doesn't do anything ?
16:52.57Varoudisim not sure
16:53.05Varoudisi dont remember :)
16:53.16arnnnnVaroudis, you don't use zaurus anymore ?
16:55.45radugamaybe don't use pdf anymore?
16:59.32radugai've (personally) never really found PDF too useful on zaurus;
16:59.52radugathe screen is too small to display enough of the page legibly
17:00.28radugahtml is generally better.  plain text (with a nice fixed font) best of all
17:00.59radugamaybe PDF that was targeted for 640x480 would be nice
17:01.25radugabut most PDFs are really expected to be viewed on paper, or on high-resolution screens
17:03.32raduga'course, 80x25 has always been my preference ;)
17:11.34VaroudisI use it but I dot remember that answer :)
17:11.48Varoudis<PROTECTED>
17:12.04Varoudisbut I use my finger for pdf
