Yes, you need to just remap it with the built in Soft Key changer.

Go to Start->Settings->Today Icon->Soft Key Tab and change it. It will let you choose any program that has a shortcut in the Start Menu/Programs list.

If you want to add a program to the list. You simply need to add a shortcut (Copy the EXE and PASTE SHORTCUT) in the \windows\start menu\programs\ directory. Then it will show on this list.

I downloaded pocketcm and put it in the windows\start menu\programs\directory and it shows up. But it doesn't show up as an option in the soft key settings list. Could this be b/c it's not the default contact manager. Other programs I've downloaded show up. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Is the left key the only one that you can change? I can't seem to find that anywhere in the documentation.

There's another thread for the right soft key, and as of this moment, I don't think we can change it.
