Well I found a quick workaround to this issue of the hardware IE button not going to the homepage you've set.

In the \windows\appbuttons folder you'll see an "Internet Explorer.lnk" file. If open the file using Word mobile it contains:

28#"\Windows\iexplore.exe"
\windows\default.htm

Edit the file so that it just says:

28#"\Windows\iexplore.exe"

Close Word mobile, kill any running instance of IE and restart it using the hardware button. Should work now.

Oh, and I'm not liable for any damage you may or may not do to your machine

Here's the fix zen mentioned from the IE on PPC 6700 thread. Just to save you some time, you can't edit the file in pocket word unless you use Resco File Explorer (or some other utilty with the same functionality).

Update:
Someone else on that thread mentioned that editing the file by browsing to it while it is synced from your desktop computer should work. This may be true, but it looks like it is not easily done without some tweaking.
