How is it the OK button? It doesnt go back to the previous screen when you press it when you are most screens?

I miss the OK button on the keyboard, the most. I actually used that thing a LOT!

Come to think of it, I have been reaching for it. I don't think I noticed my use of it until I didn't have it. Mainly, though, it's not having one in easy reach while the keyboard's open. The one under the wheel was in the perfect spot for my right forefinger, so I used that more.

I suggest installing qmenu and assign it to a button (double press) using AEButton Plus.

It closes the screen, but not the app. Just tested and the two apps I used the back button to close were still running in task mgr. = battery burn baby!

The windows OK button doesnt close apps normally though so they should still be running in the background. Unless you installed a program that tells it to close the app when you hit OK. I know Qmenu has that option.

So, in other words, exactly the same as the OK button. The OK button never closed the app, it just minimizes it. The longest-known flaw in Windows Mobile history.

And are people seriously questioning whether the back button is the OK button? Use it for ten seconds and it's pretty darn clear. HTC designed a few of their apps so that OK apparently closes the new page making it feel like it's back, but in everything else it clearly acts as the OK button.
