Take the guessing out of gesturing

Using your Palm webOS phone is even easier and more fun when you learn a few simple advanced gestures. Here are a few good ones to get you started:

• Full screen app switching! Go to the Screen & Lock icon, scroll down to Advanced Gestures and turn on Switch Applications. Now you can swap between full screen open apps with a long swipe left or right in the gesture area. No need to go into card view.
• Open top left and right menus with one swipe. Let's say you want to quickly disable Bluetooth on your phone. Instead of tapping the screen to pull down the menu, just swipe down from the top right corner of your screen. To view the menu in an application, swipe down from the top left corner.
• Resize cards and card order. Tap and hold a card while in card view to resize the card. Drag cards to change the order.
• Quickly end a phone call. In card view, throw the Phone app card off the top of the screen to end a call.

Very cool. My fat fingers often have a hard time clicking the top right and left menus. I appreciate being able to do the swipe.

The menus are still a point of contention with me -- using either tapping or dragging, I still have to try 2-3 times every time. Maybe my fingers are too fat, or maybe the menu is too small.

Since there is no way to contact Palm about apps in the app catalog....moderator, please tell someone "bubbles" in the app catalog is a ripoff. It does not work and support site is in German and there is no way other than credit card dispute to get back the $1.08. Not worth the time. Basically petty theft.
