| SharkTXfix Thanks to Jimmie Geddes who asked me to write a TX utility to add back the Home button into the Status Bar. SharkTXfix makes tapping the Find button act as Home, and swiping up from the Find button act as Find.
V1.1 now supports Landscape as well!
if the lack of a home SB button bothers you, it might be worth a shot!
DOWNLOAD IT NOW!
regards, Tyler

| He does need a paypal button. He's too nice a guy to be giving all these great apps away for free. Palm knows who Tyler Faux is  |

| I wonder why Palm always likes to leave a glitch or two in their new products, maybe just for Tyler to fix it? 
Although I don't own any of the recent Palms, a glitch fixer sure deserves some respect.
Way to go, man! |

It makes you wonder? Home is the most used soft button on my TH, and the search function is practically never used. Why would they do that?

| Palm should send Tyler "free" devices so he can "fix" them, he should also be paid  Don't worry Palm is watching him  I mean look at how many fixes he's created. Sharkcache saved the LifeDrive. Palm Tech support acutally told me to download it when I called them when I had a lifedrive,lol. He's already updated SharkTXfix in less than 12 hours of it being out  |

| Brad as to why Palm did it; the same reason a dog licks himself, they can. Didn't mean to get too graphic. Palm just got rid of it to make room for the wifi icon, guess they didn't think we'd want it back. We have, and Tyler has given it to us. |

regards, Tyler | Thanks Tyler! You did a great job in fixing Palm's blunder. Of all the buttons to eliminate, why Home?
By the way, ButtonEx does a nice job on the TX of fixing the hardware Home button.
