Buttons preferences let you assign different applications to the buttons on the front panel of the pda phone. For example, if you find that you seldom use the To Do List and often use Mail, you can assign the To Do List button to start the Mail application.

You can also change whether the full-screen pen stroke activates the Graffiti® 2 Help application or one of your pda phone controls using Buttons preferences.
