i've recently replaced my old Palm (Sony Clie UX50) with an XDA Exec, and am pining for some of my old palm-os apps

one of the ones i miss the most is PetitLaunch (http://pam-ya.com/en/) which lets you launch an app from the keyboard. sort of similar to Windows-Key+R it pops up a command-line-type dialog so you can type name of what you want to launch (with auto-complete)

very simple, very quick - i just hit one button to open petitlaunch, type the first character of the app i want, then return... all without needing to go through menus or use the stylus

does anyone know of something eqiuvalent (or similar) in WM5?
