I need to know if it is easy to navigate using the touch screen as in, with one hand while i am driving, I do it easily with my LG voyager, back and forth, back and forth. This will minimize chances of a collision

I use slingbox with this phone and find it really easy to use. It's easier to switch channels and navigate in portrait mode, however if I'm just watching I switch to landscape mode for better viewing.

that kinda sucks, you mean if i have the phone mounted in landscape mode, can't I at least channel up and down with one finger? I have never used slingbox at all, that is why I am asking. I enjoy how easy it is to navigate the voyager using the mobile tv, but why pay 15/ month for 15 channels when i can have my whole timewarner cable for no monthly fee's? it's a no brainer. Anyway I'll probably still get it. I found a way to mount my voyager on my dash using those magnet mounts, i connect it to the bose system using a tape adaptor and the sound is ridiculous, awesome.

jimjigga,

I have just the car mount you need! I have a Pro-Clip swivel mount that allows you to swivel the phone in landscape or portrait. Go to the site, choose your car make, model and phone model, and you will get a custom mount for your exact car and your exact phone! Its a little pricey, but the best I ever had. I bought it originally for my samsung i760. Then when I upgraded to the Omnia, all I had to buy was the Omnia mount to work with my swivel mount for my car I bought for the i760.

Anyway, give it a look. http://www.proclipusa.com/Default.asp

You can change the channels with one hand in landscape or portrait mode. I find it easier in portrait mode but it's not difficult either way.

Slingbox has a feature where you can bookmark your favorite channels, and that's really easy to switch between.
