You can change the homepage with a Registry key.

Search th registry for PIE and t-mobile, I cant remember the exact key.

HKLM/SOFTWARE/HTC/PIEplug

change the string value Home to the page you want.

the button with the picture of a sun is for turning the backlight back on. kind of useful I guess!

Hmmm - mine has never worked. Something I need to look into I guess.

I first thought this when I had this button first on my Universal. Wait for the backlight to go dim, then press the backlight button and the screen will light up. I suppose it's to stop you pressing a button that might perform another function as well as reilluminate the screen.

So it does - I was hoping maybe it would turn it off as well.

Thanks!

I have written a short tutorial about how to change the default Opera home page (i.e. first page that opens when you start the Ameo browser).

It is at http://www.tomfotherby.com/blog/index.php/2008/01/change-the-opera-start-page-on-the-ameo-jan08/

Cheers,
