Buttons - A small rant

[CTSLICK]

[Illogical Rant on :evil: ]
OK, so I've used my Axim for a little over a month now and am really pleased...except for one thing. The hardware buttons are too noisy. I know Dell was going for some combination of tactile and audible feedback but good grief I could wake the dead with these.

How am I supposed to play an inconspicuous game now and then with all that snapping going on? I hate using onscreen buttons but I may have to resort to them. Otherwise, playing games that use hardware buttons tend to annoy anyone in the room with me...or in the next cube...or in the surrounding seats in an aircraft...or in a meeting...well you get the idea. Worse yet, the clicking of these buttons seem to attract my kids like a can of tuna attracts a cat. And then its, Dad when do I get to play...ppplllleeeeeaaaasssseee....awww come on Dad....Dad you stink at this game, my high score is better etc etc.

You can turn the button click sound off . Go to Start/Settings/Sounds & Notifications/ and uncheck Hardware buttons.

I think he's talking about the physical sound not the software sound.

That's odd though mine aren't that loud, the only time when they're noticable is when I'm playing in bed at night and the house is quiet. If there's ANY background noise at all, it's not noticable.

Definitely talking about the physical sound...

Maybe I am just more sensitive to the sound because the buttons on my old EM-500 were silent
