Default Turn it off man!

To turn the easter egg off, draw the circle around the egg until it disappears.

Just draw the circle again, and the easter egg should disappear.
And yes, I am the god of useless trivia...

I had it activated on my Zire 71. I did a sloppy upgrade (before I read the warnings about a clean install). Anyway the taxi is active on my Treo without my turning it on. It appears I might see it once or twice in an hour and then not see it for a while. TopSuDoKu seems to be its most frequent activator. I’ve been on palm long enough to know what it was and how to deal with it. It’s really turbo charged on the Treo 650.

Right to left is the only way I've seen it on Treo or older palms.

Has anyone been able to get this one to work?

1. Activate the Easter Egg.
2. From the Palm launcher (not a launcher app) hit Menu -> Options -> About Applications.
3. Hold the 5-way switch down arrow and tap OK.
4. Do steps 2 & 3 three more times, holding down the down arrow the last time.
5. A cool, flamey "Palm OS 5.0" splash screen should appear, with credits rolling as long as you hold the down arrow.

This is supposed to work for Palm OS 5.x but no dice for me. I've tried resetting and also deactivating PalmRevolt (which, in older versions, has interfered with 5-way switch function). Perhaps is won't work with a Treo?
