A single tap of the stylus seems to cause both a mouse over command activation and a left-click command activation. Is it possible to make a single tap only cause a mouse-over command?

I have noticed that on rare occasions (I think depending on how lightly -or- quickly I can make the single tap register) Just the mouse-over is recognized. However, 99% of the time, the instant I single-tap, both the mouse-over AND left-click seem to be caused which in most cases (site dependant) a new page is loaded because of the left-click being recognized.

Is there a command line way (or some application I can load) to adjust the stylus features? I.E. like mouse settings on a PC would allow swapping the meaning (feature that is activated by) single click/double click, changing the sensitivity of the mouse, and speed of double click etc.

I am using a N800 w/OS2008.
Does the N810 have mouse-over capability?

Bump!
Anyone?

Thoughts or suggestions on how to achieve the mouse-over action on a web page?

No. While the N810 does use a slightly different display from the N800, the pen input functionality is identical.

Two possibilities:
  1. switch to electromagnetic pen digitizers for future devices
  2. update MicroB to use the pressure level of taps to determine mouse over vs. click
  3. redesign the OS & applications to follow something like a "tap once to set mouse location, tap again to click" scheme

And my thoughts on them:
  1. is possible, but unlikely, and doesn't help you with your current N800
  2. is again possible, but unlikely, as the Nokia developers have stated that it's difficult to use the limited pressure data the Internet tablets' screens provide
  3. is the least likely and would be such a fundamental change that it wouldn't happen anytime soon even if Nokia collectively lost their minds and decided to make it
