OKey Questions

What does Super Jog Assist, Scroll Up/Down, and Stick Key Mode do to help me?

OKey is kind of like a replacement for PageDownHack and the old Jog Preferences menu for OS4. I have all 3 options checked. Super Jog Assist allows you to hold down the jog button in apps with buttons until one of the buttons is highlighted. You can then scroll between buttons using the jog dial and also use it to selec the button you want to hit. For example, when a DB alarm goes off, I hold the jog dial down until a button is highlighted, then scroll to the OK button, and hit select without needing to use my stylus. Scroll Up/Down does two things. It adds two very visible up down buttons to the status bar, and it also adds 4 hidden buttons that take the place of the hardware buttons. The battery icon launches whatever the DateBook button is set to launch, and the left, middle, and right parts of the clock section launch the Address, Todo, and Memo button apps. The Sticky Key Mode allows you to hit the Shift key let it go, then hit a letter and it will be capitalized. Same thing with the Function button. After using the NR, this takes awhile to get used to. Unfortunately, there is a bug so that even when this is unchecked, the Shift button works as if it's on (Function button doesn't work this way with the option unchecked), so I think it's less confusing to just leave it checked and get used to it. Once you do, it's very nice.
