You are kidding right? They tend to drift and then you go back and forth and back and forth hitting the target area after a hard reset. The only solution is to send it away for repair or replace the unit entirely. If you got a way to make them work right again with out doing so; please, by

You should have only one process running at a time. You can't multiprocess. On the newer Palms, with phones or MP3 players, that might not be the case. To run as a background process, you can't program it with the Palm SDK, so I am not sure that there are a lot of programs that can run in
