On phone app, choose Tools->Options->More
Hardware button Lock

'Lock all buttons except Power'

Sorry, misunderstood.
You want to lock it whilst it is powered on. Don't know how.

On PocketDiVX and PocketMVP, you can map the hardware buttons. So if you map both hardware buttons and all directions on the rocker keypad to something which doesn't interfere with MP3 playing (such as 'increase brightness'), you're all set.

I would keep one (maybe a rocker direction?) mapped to toggling the screen on and off to save batteries though.

well windows have smart key settings like if you
hold down the ALT key and press the F4 key the active problem close
and if you hold down CTRL + ALT and hit DELETE it reboot if it's win9X and give you the taskmanager if it's NT/2k/XP

some you can set yourself to do what ever action you want it to

well it's the the same thing with your XDA when you are running a program you can change what the buttons on your device does

so when you are listening to mp3 then you set the keys actions to something which does not interfear with your music playing, you can prob set these up in the program you use to listen to music with

and in the end a7GH add that it would prob be a good idea to set on off the buttons action to turning off the display to save juice
