Does anybody know of a program or registry editor that can convert the Axim to a left handed user interface?

I've installed these on my old Palm, but can't find anything for the pocket pc.

Thanks!

What exactly are you trying to flip around...? I am a lefty and a bit confused at what may make my life easier...?? Everything seems to be hand inspecific....

It would be nice if scroll bars could be on the left side of the screen at the least.
Perhaps even the 'Ok' button...

Ahhh, I see. Yes I guess that would be nice but I am so used to the Right Handed prejudice that exists now, that I have to admit I would be unconfortable....

I found bumpcus while looking for anything for this purpose. Sorry.

What's the name of the Palm program you spoke of. I have an M515 I would like to try that on.

let the lefty revolution begin!!!

i would love a program that would switch the controls to the left. let's face it a pda is not for sharing like a laptop or desktop unit. i love my mouse at work because i programmed it for me and my left hand- drives my employees nuts and they leave my computer alone when i'm out of the office.

if there is a program let us lefties know.

Isn't there a scroll lever on the LEFT side of the Ax? When I scroll down, it just as easy to use my left hand than my right. Just a thought from an ambidextrious. With the right hand, middle finger falls right on it.

Is there any programmer that would be interested in developing a lefty program?

Do we, as the consumers, have any influence on programmers, asking them to create programs?
Or is it just a world catered to righties?

Do you play golf? Go into a golf specialty store and ask for lefty stuff.....they usually have a beat up old box in the back corner somewhere.

Sorry for the off topic, but I couldn't resist.

Myself, I own a set of lefty clubs, but would hardly call what I do playing golf. I drink the beer left handed.

:p

As far as using the Axim, I go left handed and had not actually ever thought of any other way. With such a small device, would it really matter???

This coming from a guy who writes, throws, golfs, bats left handed, but, mouses right handed....go figure.
