As suual I'm behind on my email. I verified that triple click currently has no default action. Double-clicking home goes to favorites and a triple just goes back home again. Only after enabling the triple-click in preferences does it do anything useful. I guess I can understand Apple not wanti

I would have to disagree. The I phone is designed for the general population. by removing one of the gestures you are there by removing some of the sighted users accessability. we are a limited population and by making voiceover available by means of I tunes it maximizes accessability

It's very much that hard though if you don't happen to have a copy of iTunes handy, I'm thinking people who want to test run the iPhone in a shop or borrow their buddy's iPhone to demonstrate an app or perhaps just show off. You might say it's an unlikely scenario and you'd probably be right, but
