ScrollIt 2X turns your iPhone or iPod Touch into an L.E.D. double message display board. ScrollIt 2X will help you tell your friends, colleagues, or anyone something - when they can’t hear you: at a club, concert, class, meeting, lecture, or even a restaurant. Just type your messages and hit Display, and ScrollIt 2X will scroll the messages for everyone around to see. What adds to the fun is that ScrollIt 2X offers easy-to-type emoticons right from the same keyboard. Make your text even more fun to watch! The phone vibrates quietly to let you know when the message has finished. (Replaced with a short beep on iPod Touch and iPad.) The endless-loop option lets ScrollIt repeat your message indefinitely. ScrollIt 2X features: • Simple yet powerful design with no confusing buttons or switches • Run two messages simultaneously or single message of full screen size (to run single message, simply delete the text in any of the preview lines) • Unlimited messages length • Emoticons from the same keyboard • Mini live preview for easy color and speed selection • Short vibration at the end of scrolling • Endless-loop option • Right-to-left display for Arabic or Hebrew • Three L.E.D. shapes: neon, round, and square • Recently-used messages list with one-tap access • Sharing of colorful messages with friends through SMS or other apps Use ScrollIt 2X for: • Flirting: display messages to people at the disco, bar, or other crowded places. • Talk to your friends at school or college: send your visual message up to 50 feet across a classroom. • Cheer at a concert or sports event: that rock star or your favorite player deserves to know how you feel! • In the office: get rid of unwanted visitors without even talking to them. • If you can't or don't want to talk: you’re sick or in a bad mood. • Just to be cool: we guarantee you’ll be popular anywhere with ScrollIt 2X!
