Given that the new versions of 6.5 doesn't seem to have gwes.exe, the previous fix for the mouse pointer doesn't work anymore for these versions. My question is who actually uses the finger mouse? I certainly don't...

Thanks

Steven

Just reply with "I use it" or "I don't use it" or "I don't care"

Thanks

never have, never will.

We have a touch screen folks, use it?? :(

The mouse has no need at all (IMHO) B) I know people use it, but i dont think it is essential...

If it didnt have a mouse pointer in the first place, then nobody would be concerned about it? However, some people really need it and use it all the time.

The votes are heading towards a majority of NO.

I tried using it for a little while, it was fun but quickly disabled it as thought it was more of a gimmick... In future ROMs, might remove the fingermouse altogether.

Use it all the time to hit the X in the top corner, scroll in PIE or email, programs, etc. Makes one-handed use much easier since there are so few buttons.

Tried it when first got the phone but didn't like it. Never bothered if it's even installed!

It's not an essential tool but I used it when I am too lazy to pull out the stylus for really tiny selections... don't mind having it handy...

I think Samsung put it there thinking it will replace the stylus.... but they didn't think it through..

I use it for ScummVM and a few other games that aren't very finger friendly, but that's it
