Touch Screen Sensitivity Issues
I've had the X-7 for about a year - love the sound quality and capacity but the response of the touch screen is a continuing headache. I have issues with both oversensitivity and lack of sensitivity. Biggest problem is while I'm listening to a song and want to scroll other folders to find what I want to listen to next I find it very hard to navigate other lists with the vertical scroll bar without starting another song. I keep my thumb tight against border of the screen and am only using my nail on the screen - I'm definitely not making direct contact with a selection and sometimes that works easily and others I find myself starting a song that my digit didn't really come that close to. I also find the vertical scroll just stubborn - sometimes difficult to get it to come up and sometimes difficult to scroll. What's odd is that working with it over this length of time I've found that repeating the same way of touching the screen yields different results. I've changed the sensitivity setting several times but haven't noticed any help with this problem. On the reverse side I find that using the same tap motion and pressure to tap a selection sometimes works easily and others takes multiple - and I mean multiple taps - to activate something I'm really trying to activate. In the beginning I did an online help chat with a really nice Cowon tech guy and he acknowledged that it was a problem but said that after people work with it awhile they finally get the hang of it. In my case, I'm not getting the hang I'm just becoming resigned to the inconvenience as the price for the sound quality. Any help or suggestions much appreciated.

Yup, similar experience here. I think its just something we're stuck with. It makes no sense but it is what it is - a fairly crap implementation of a touch screen!

Touch Screen Sensitivity Issues
Surprised that I didn't see any prior thread on this issue. I keep hoping that a firmware update may be able to address this but I don't know if that's even possible.

Doubt Cowon are interested in updating the firmware any further - the last update was quite some time ago now!

Since the screen is resistive order a Cowon D2 stylus: http://www.amazon.com/COWON-Stylus-S.../dp/B0035CMD6O

LOL!!! Sorry, I didn't really see this thread until tonight. I hope it works for you though,...I'd do the same if I had gotten an X7.

LOL on this side too - definitely didn't intend that to sound like a complaint.
