Re: d-pad

so have people adjusted to the left/right quirks of the d-pad then by pushing out further to the sides as per those instructions?

i ask b/c infosyncworld's review really hammered the TP for having unusable left/right d-pad buttons, which sounds like it would be a major issue (i haven't been able to find a unit to play with)...

We wish the wheel could have been used everywhere, because the 4-way controls are an abysmal failure. It's difficult to know where to press on the lipped crater of the center button, and we often found the HTC Touch Pro choosing one of the keys to the left or right of the button, all of which (Send, End, Back and Home) are disastrous when you only want to move the cursor around. When we tried up and down, we had better luck, but it still didn't work every time.
