ipod controls for scrolling

fuzzmuffin · 08-22-2008, 05:50 PM

it would be cool if u could change the touch pad settings so they acted like an ipod for easier scrolling and volume control how about that!!!

daflyinsausage · 08-22-2008, 10:40 PM

Well, it's a preference thing.

But no.

SilentWalrus · 08-22-2008, 10:55 PM

Yeah, No!
The Zune is not an iPod. It's a separate device.

leefy008 · 08-23-2008, 12:00 AM

the touch pad only works up and down side to side there's how the hardware was made, it can't be changed

bobbyeggo · 08-24-2008, 02:58 PM

The scrollwheel gets tiring to use anyway.

Zune=Zune,
Not iPod.

creative zune · 08-24-2008, 04:34 PM

I think you mean "patented". Yes, there is quite a difference.

Both forms of navigation are great for their own device. I don't see the point of trying to scroll in circles on the Zune, but it makes perfect sense when using an iPod. People make a big deal over the difference, but both are equally simple. It takes no energy or brain power to scroll your finger in a circle.

asking for an iPod click wheel on a zune board... Hmmmmm. I think I smell a troll. Now comes the question... To feed it or not to feed it?

Not gonna do it. TF2 is calling...

...*remembers the hard times in the past trying to choose the song in the middle of other two with an ipod*...

*shivers...

no thanks... ^__^ i think its by your preferences though, but i prefer to click wherever i go, not touch "supersensitive-that-you-keep-getting-the-wrong-song" ...

While I'm sure it's physically possible (contrary to what was noted, the Zune pad is just one big touch pad, so it could be programmed to do this if anyone cared), I'm not sure I see a reason why. A decent portion of the reason I didn't buy an iPod was that stupid clickwheel. I find the Zune pad much more intuitive.

Apple doesn't have the patent on a wheel. They have a patent on their wheel. Other kinds of wheels, like SanDisk's, are fine.

eppey1 · 09-17-2008, 12:19 PM

yeah instead of that ipod bs. (the circle wheel is one reason i hated my nano gen.1) how about double tapping the center of the zune pad to select items. clicking it can get kind of annoying.
