The biggest issue with scrolling is the fact that mobile browsers don't support 
such a simple thing as fixed divs in CSS. You can't have a footer always 
displayed with using HTML/CSS only on any iOS/Android device. Scrolling divs 
otoh require the user to use two fingers - which many users wouldn't discover. 
Thus there are several JS approaches to work around this seemingly simple 
problem. But it's not simple, and it requires a lot of processing. iScroll is 
one very well known solution, dedicated to nothing else but implement 
headers/footers with a scrollable area in between.

As you can see there's a cost to a free controller app. Spend a beer on 
SqueezeCommander if you don't like the performance.
