yep :) you need to analyse what type of affect it would have on the user in regards to how they interact with the unit. when i think about it, we actually do change the "users functionality" of a unit in games. we re-assign the hardware buttons for controls - instead of switching the other applications (but, they expect this) :P disabling the "home" button can be accepted too.. if you pop up a dialog explaining why.. the only problems you'll really run into is when an appStopEvent comes from other means.. you'll need to handle these cases special :) such as a HotSync event or other.. thats where the "pain in the backside" comes into it.. as a palm user, "home" is like "escape". it'll be hard to get a lot of people to accept that as something you should add to your application(s).. :) // az [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ardiri.com/ -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
