I love the suggestion though, it beats modifiying the manifest for
debugging. I recall finding a way to do it from code too, but so far I
have resisted my bosses suggestions to change our back functionality
only for the Droid.

What I am tempted to do is noHistory all but one or a few of my
activities, then whenever managements decides we really do want to be
able to go back, over ride the back button and specify specifically
where to go in the case the user hits back.  It's ugly, and against
paradigm, but it would improve our stability on the Droid.
