You can, but the docs are pretty well hidden, so I thought I'd point them out..."</i><br /><br />Jason Fuller On the Windows Mobile Team Blog decided to call attention to this little-known trick of grabbing the green talk button on a PPC/PE or Smartphone for those developers out there interested in integrating phone-related functionality into their devices. I agree with him that there would be no practical purpose to grab the button if you weren't implementing a phone-related feature, but find it highly unlikely anyone who was serious about development would do so. Unless of course there is a new game coming out called "Cell Wars" or "Send Solitaire" :)

But if some enterprising soul could build something that gives me the same control over all 10 of the buttns on my SCH i730 that Buttons in Settings does I'd buy that app in a nano-second.

Just make sure I could still use all my phone functions on tthe screen and I'd be happy.
