A note about the zoom bar:

I first came across this retarded excuse for a control mechanism with my Excalibur...it was called the "Jogger" and was so bad that it shipped factory disabled. Later I bought a Touch Pro...now the Jogger was a circle in the middle of the (completely screwed) D-pad...it was every bit as bad as the original Jogger, but most folks just ignored it. Now I have the Touch Pro 2's "Zoom Bar," Please God, let this be the final iteration of this hopeless, useless, terribly-implemented technology.

BTW - it's not just HTC either: my mom-in-law has a Samsung Blackjack II with a similar device built into the center button and it blows chunks too.
