Guys. This is a must. Check out Scroll X. It's so awesome, that there's no room for more awesomeness in it.

If you have used an iPhone you know what scrolling through a playlist is like. Get the same thing for your mac. Works even on my iBook. Just try it out.

Wow, this is really cool stuff. Works great with an external mouse.

Gotta spread it around a bit. + virtual rep

This is possibly the most rewarding OSX add on I've used yet. Thanks for the post.

Doesn't seem to work in iTunes library though which is a shame.

Maybe it's just because I'm using the evaluation copy

It's still limited support for Leopard (Cocoa only). Although, it should work just fine in iTunes since it is Cocoa.

Actually if you notice it does work, but not very well. (Use the caps lock key to turn it off and on to notice the difference).

I just installed and registered Scroll X after liking the iPhone so much, it made sense to have a similar scroll on the Mac. It works beautifully in Finder, Preview and iTunes, however I have it switched off for Firefox as I preferred the original trackpad motion, it seems to skip a bit with webpages. It's also handy to have hotkeys for scrolling, a serious improvement over using the arrow keys to navigate.
