: The scrolling limitations is soley an ipac thing. To make it more joystick-like the ipac dosen't sue a keyrepeater quite like a keyboard does, so in some apps if you hold down a key it isn't held down in the traditional sense.
for this, here is one "solution" : use "keydown" and "keyup" event to activated on/off a timer. And in the timer routine, you do the "moving" stuff.
It is in that way that I have done A-Player, and it is ok for keyboard or control panel with I-Pac. With this, you can also accelerate the scrolling by decrementing the timer interval (for loooong list ...)
