D-Pad lousy navigation.

Why is it that when you are looking at your calendar and use the D-Pad to navigate ... Both up and down, and left and right navigate you forward or backwards in DAYS?

Wouldn't it make sense for up and down to move up and down in the current day??

And save left and right for yesterday and tomorrow movement? :rolling:

Anyone know if WM5 has changed that navigation?

Mine doesn't behave like that. Up and down goes through the current day displayed and Left and right changes the dates. Have you been trying out any third party calendar apps? Maybe there's a left over setting from one that is affecting your device.

No i've never installed an alternative calendar software.

And I've been thru 2 refurb units

and all 5 ROM updates :rolling: ... so I've learned to keep what I install to a minimum.

The only other thing I can think of is maybe your not hitting the d-pad correctly. Try this just as a test, Open Calendar then use a pen or pencil to hit down on the d-pad. The pencil is smaller than your finger of course but you can at least see if user error may be a cause for this strange Calendar behavior.
