How to achieve this?

Hi folks, i was wondering if any of you could provide some insight into how the
navigation at http://www.pepsi.com/ was created.

I have managed to achieve the rotating icons and swapDepth (using actionscript
and trig) to have 5 icons rotate along an elliptical path while changing size
and depth to create the illusion of 3D rotation around a center point.

What i cannot figure out is how to allow the mouse to control the direction
and speed of the rotation since i have the actionscript for the rotation on
each of the icon movieclips (in other words they are rotating independently but
along the same path)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello,
well i was trying to make this web site sime time ago.. like 2 years ago.. and
made the same effect as the pepsi.com navigation.. and also used it for
navigation.
the only difference was that my navigation was made with left and right arrows
and not with mouse. you can see the sample at the link bellow:
