Help me disable the outer "send" hardware button.

[SportbikeRiderXX]

Is there a known hack/registry edit to completely disable the outside green phone/send button?

I'm on Verizon's plan for data only. If I put the 6700 into my pocket and accidentally hit that button, it sometimes makes unintended phone calls at $0.25 per minute (possibly to the person who sent me the last email I've read...it will use the phone number listed in Contacts that way).

I'm USUALLY pretty good about turning off the device, but I've even had it happen right at the moment that it "wakes up" to check for new mail (every 10 mins).

I want to effectively make that hardware button do NOTHING, ever! IF I ever NEED to make a call with it, I can use the "send" button within the Phone program.

I've asked this before on another forum a few month ago, but only got the response "Lock your phone before you put it in your pocket".

Maybe I can remap the button to do something else?
