When reading a very long web page using touch screen, a long forum thread for instance, it looks stupid to scroll from bottom to top as fast as I can using fingers of 2 hands, like I am in competition. Is there fast and smart way to do this?

    Flicking lends momentum to your scrolling, allowing the page to zoom by and slow to a stop. A few good flicks should see you to the bottom of a page in no time. Place a fingertip near the bottom of the page and just flick upwards. Only requires one finger and it is pretty quick. Hope this helps, good luck out there sy!

    I was hoping for a "home" gesture. That would be useful.

    Also, on your Touch/Type cover the Fn button + Up or Down Arrow is your Page Up and Page Down.

    If you have the touch or type covers, the Home and End keys do this, as does using fn+left or fn+right. But I haven't discovered any touch gestures to do the same if you don't have the cover open.

    (tried in desktop IE and metro IE).
