Greetings,

For reasons similar to an earlier poster, I'd like to find a way to map a button to mute/unmute the mic during a cell call.

A small application was posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386810 which does this.

However it does not work on the Treo800w (as well as a few others) due to the fact that it looks for text on the button, which isn't there in this model.

In any event, after exhaustive searching - their doesn't appear to be any ready-made solution for this. I'm willing to write my own, but it's not even clear to me from the msdn api docs that it's even possible to directly manipulate this? Is this type of control "protected" from the Windows portion of the phone?

The idea would be to write a tiny app to toggle it and then map it to aebutton or something similar.

This is pretty much exactly what "itsallwright" did, and I'd like it for the same reasons - it's just his approach doesn't work on the Treo800w.

Thoughts?
