The Capacitive Button Cult Must Be Stopped

Re:The Capacitive Button Cult Must Be Stopped by SoftwareMaven on Monday July 04, 2011 @02:13PM (#2727296)

I've been thinking about getting some of these (http://WWW.THUMBDOGS.COM/) to deal with my phone while I'm on my motorcycle. There are also solutions based on sewing conductive thread through the ends of the gloves.

I have no idea how well they would work for the evil called capavitive buttons. I am consistently fighting with every electronic item I own that has those damnable things. I guess my fingertips just don't hold a charge.

Probably not a good idea...

Take all the fun out...

The more likely time is when stopping for a minute to look at the map or change playlists. It is obnoxious to always be taking the gloves off for it.

I don't like to talk on the phone when I'm not riding; why would I ever choose to do it during my decompression time? :)
