scrolling

I'm attempting to use the code below to make a horizontal listbox in WP7 silverlight. The items appear horizontally but the scrolling is still vertical.

Am I doing something wrong in wpf? Is this a WP7 specific bug?.

    <Style TargetType="ListBox" x:Name="HorizontalListBox">
        <Setter Property="ItemsPanel">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                    <VirtualizingStackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" 
                                            IsItemsHost="True" 
                                            CanHorizontallyScroll="True" 
                                            CanVerticallyScroll="False"/>
                </ItemsPanelTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>
