Task Facade suggested by Orlando is pretty cool. You can also try Magic Button (freeware) and HandySwitcher. They pretty do the same thing as the included HTC Task Manager that the Touch Pro has. Magic Button is like WkTask, but is a much smaller program. HandySwitcher display 'drop down' menu style for open application and its icon can be position anywhere on the start menu taskbar (just be aware if you do not disable "Show System Status screen" in TouchFlo settings, that can override HandySwitcher icon depending on its position). I have included the link to Magic Button below. Though, I currently do not use either of these programs and have just been using AE Button Plus.

If you are going to use AE Button Plus too, you probably do not need any of the application switcher programs. AE Button Plus allows you to map any hardware button to an application. So you can just configure one of the button to run Window Mobile's "Task Manager" (recommend using either double press or long press, so you will not have to give up existing single button press mappings that phone has as default). The Task Manager allows you to switch between open applications as well as close them. It's pretty much the same thing as the HTC Task Manger.

Here's link to Magic Button, if you want to try:
