    Folks,

    On the MBP is it possible to keep scrolling up or down without having to lift my fingers fter each page?

    Dell, Thinkpads, etc all have the option where if I hold my finger at the bottom of the track pad the scrolling continues. I can't seem to get my MBP with 10.5.3 OS X to do this in applemail, FF, safari, etc.

    Am I missing a place to enable this?

    Thanks!
    Tom

    No. Two finger scrolling is like the scroll wheel on a mouse, whereas what you're describing is like clicking the scroll wheel and moving it up or down.
    Sorry
