I concur STRONGLY!!!! I can't count how many times I have accidentally clicked a link on a page just by scrolling. I use a usb keyboard most of the time, and so far have not been able to find any key for page up or page down. Sure would like to have those.

I did not reakize that the usb keyboards don't have page up and down buttons. I wonder if any have them, and if they work with the eDGe. If so, the buttons would make the keyboard much higher in my want list . Or, a scroll button would work, too.

I wasn't very clear on that...my keyboard DOES have the Page up and Page down keys, they just don't work with Android.

Oh. Major, major bummer. I wonder if enTourage would be able to program this in or would it need to be Google? Maybe, if Google is putting out a tablet pc, then they'll add that to Android.

Try the trackball

The trackball will let you move up and down without accidental clicks.

Yeah, I know.....but that is:
1. Slow. Much slower than a page down key.
2. Uncomfortable (for me). I almost always have my edge in landscape mode when browsing (or using docs2go) and have a keyboard plugged in. Hands on the keyboard, it is not natural - and takes a lot of effort (don't laugh, I'm lazy) - to reach up and use the trackball. Just doesn't seem like it should be necessary to do that.

BTW, cheyennedonna, I've been meaning to tell you that I appreciate all the links you post to android apps and other things that are helpful to other people. You are a real asset to these forums!
