Couple of answers that haven't been questioned...wait, scratch that, reverse it.

1) You can get directly to your text messages from your soft key by putting this as your Open: \Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS"

2) By default the right soft key is set to Contacts, but if you look in your registry there is not even a key for 113, so just go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys and just delete the entire key "113" soft reset and it should default back to Contacts.
