Instead of tapping the screen or pressing left or right on the directional pad, you would just jerk your device ever-so-slightly to the left or right. It really wouldn't take much travel at all -- maybe half an inch. That's a simple but pretty intuitive use of the accelerometer.<br><br>i'm not so sure about using it a shift key, which is essentially what the text above is describing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[aoi tsuki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 15th 2009 9:18PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
