Grab That Talk Button!
Posted by Jon Westfall in "DEVELOPER" @ 05:17 PM
"Ever wanted to use the phone's green Talk key (sometimes called the Send button) in your application? You can, but the docs are pretty well hidden, so I thought I'd point them out..."
Jason Fuller On the Windows Mobile Team Blog decided to call attention to this little-known trick of grabbing the green talk button on a PPC/PE or Smartphone for those developers out there interested in integrating phone-related functionality into their devices. I agree with him that there would be no practical purpose to grab the button if you weren't implementing a phone-related feature, but find it highly unlikely anyone who was serious about development would do so. Unless of course there is a new game coming out called "Cell Wars" or "Send Solitaire" :)
