Tip: Windows Mobile - Take Advantage of Soft Keys

Soft keys are found on both Windows Mobile smartphones and Pocket PCs. They’re called “soft” because their function varies based on the software that you’re running.

In a camera application, for example, a soft key may snap a picture. In Internet Explorer, that same key may work as a back button.

The function of a soft key is listed on the screen next to or just above the button. On the Sprint Mogul by HTC, for example, the soft keys have one dot in the center of each. They are located just above the Talk and End keys (see above).
