iPhone's kinetic scrolling comes to the Nokia N800

The kinetic scrolling feature present on the iPhone isn't just a way to simulate a slot machine with your data, it's a quick method to zip through lists, scroll through e-mails and surf the web. We already saw the iPhone keyboard created for the N800 (although I find the native one very good) and now a 28-year old developer has the scrolling down pat too. Check Kenneth Christiansen's video demo as it shows off his work quite nicely; no scroll bars makes for more usable display space, so the more interfaces with this approach, the better. Perhaps we'll see the Flicks in Vista get the kinetic treatment next?

Wow very nice, I wonder if he can add rubber-banding to the top and bottom when he has a non continuous list.

Paging Apple Legal...

Don't laugh. They removed a YouTube of a PPC with that scrolling someone did.

It'll do my heart good to see it squished.

Die Nokia Die.
