Shortcut?

If you enable shortcuts on Blackberry (by disabling Dial From Home Screen) you can very handily jump to certain apps. I'd love it if PodTrapper had this both for the 'main' program, and one for the 'play/pause' app.

QSms enables this, so I know 3rd party software has access to this feature.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Can you describe what you do to set a shortcut? If I hold a key it asks me if I want to assign a speed dial to it?

Thanks, I'll definitely add it if I can.

Maybe it just takes a while for posts to show up, or maybe I didn't post it properly... so I'll answer again.

With Curves, if you just start typing it will dial someone, either by phone number or by address list. If you disable this feature (disable dialing from the home screen) tapping letters (not pressing and holding) will act like short cuts.

Interesting, I'll have to look into this. I haven't seen an API for it, but I guess it has to be there somewhere.
