Mouse 'freindly' front end ......... ?

**ScarFace** · 10-13-2005, 11:59 PM

Hi peeps ...... sorry if this has been discussed before, I had a look through and can't find anything !

My install does not have a touchscreen ......... neither do I have a keyboard plugged in !

I'm just using the trackball to work the car pc ......... and I'm looking for a decent front end.

Media Engine is good, however once I have some music loaded, I can't go back because the only way to go back it by pressing "esc" (am I wrong?)

Can anyone advise me of a decent front end / skin possibly ......... that I will be able to fully functionally use just with the mouse / trackball.

I only really need to MUSIC / MOVIES option too ..... as I wont be using the RADIO / GPS / PHONE / ETC functions of the front end ........

Thanks in advance !

If you want a very simple to operate program and an easy to navigate file system with large easy to read fonts, try Mobile Impact. It first and foremost relies on a mouse to operate all functions.

I have three lilliput as headrest monitors, no touch, and I bought when I first started this as a noob and paid less on ebay and got STN.........

Someone kick me.

The front is a 12 inch ibm 4820, look for my year long thread and laugh at that one.

I need an upgrade and I'm only just nearing the end of the install!
