Summary: Application Key is not made for iPaq
Description:
"Application Key" is too Zaurus specific (I suppose). Anyway, on my iPaq I
don't have a "Q" button, but I have instead a "Mail" button and a "Record"
button (on the side of the iPAQ).

It would be nice if this application could let me set all the 5 buttons,
and not only 3 of them (the first three, probably because they are the same
on the Zaurus ?).

The Q button and the Mail button are pretty much the same button with
different labels. The record button doesnt get bound because until recently
it was fixed to be the Escape key. You also lose a key that it interpreted
as the menu button in opie.

Thanks for reopening it.

Anyway, maybe it does matter that I have a ipaq 3850, with the latest
unstable opie and familiar feeds.

There are three different bugs here:

1. The "Mail" button (showed as 'Q' in Application Key) does not work. No
matter what application I assign to it, it does not work.

2. (cosmetic only) The application should show "Mail" and not "Q" as the
button's label.

3. There should be a fifth parametrable button for the 'Record' button.

Please do not close the bug until the three items are fixed. (unless you
prefer me to separately report the 3 bugs, so you could assign different
priorities to each of them).

re: point 2. - changing this from "Q" to "Mail" would 'break' it
cosmetically for ipaq 36xx users. ideally it should look at /proc/hal/model
and label the button accordingly. the button is the same on all ipaqs
regardless of the label on it.
