Unfortunately, there isn't a reliable way to handle this in software on the current 
PalmOS.  There are several well documented by
third party tricks to do this but I highly advice against it if this is production 
code.

My timing rule of thumb has been if you want to do anything with a precision below 
10ms, you need to break out the soldering iron.
I have seen devices like a custom microcontroller configuration or a custom 
Springboard module developed to handle just this
situation.  You may want to consider getting a hold of the modem plastic cases and 
developing a microcontroller board that can read
the modem button at a very reliable rate for this.
