I'll have my gloves on to my keep my fingers nice and warm while i'm suing my Desire. Since the Desire is a touch screen, how the **** will I be able to use my phone?

dude take your time to write a sentence with some decent spelling and grammar - I had to read your post like 3 times to understand what you were trying to say.

And your problem is trivial - get a grip.

Use fingerless gloves.

SilverTongue · 15 Aug 2011 at 21:55

A why would you be suing your desire??

B grow a pair and man up

C wear fingerless gloves or just take them off while using your phone (this is the option most sensible people would choose)

This. Alternatively keep your hands in your pockets and only get them out when you need to use your phone.

There were some gloves on the gadget show a while back that used some kind of special material that let you use a touch screen while wearing them. Can't for the life of me remember the name though

Were they any good though? I mean firstly at keeping your fingers warm and secondly at being able to use the phone?

You should be more worried if you use an iphone. The apple warranty doesn't cover them in sub zero temperatures

tom_e · 15 Aug 2011 at 23:22

Take your gloves off, using any phone touch screen or not always infuriates me if I keep my gloves on

buchtis · 16 Aug 2011 at 00:19

Jesus Christ, no idea what happened to my spelling there. Must have typed it in a rush, then gtfo'd.

But yeah, you get the gist. I'm asking as I use my phone for work reasons a lot throughout the day.

The__Malteser · 16 Aug 2011 at 08:22

I gave you a good solution :rolleyes:

Put thermal paste on the glove were it makes contact with the screen.

Does no one watch Kipkay?

EDIT - Malteaser beat me to it

V4NT0M · 16 Aug 2011 at 09:46

It keeps me up at night too.

HumanShield · 16 Aug 2011 at 09:46

They could have changed it now. I'm just going from the reports last winter.
