T610 "My Shortcuts" Seems Useless!

Hi.

The "My Shortcuts" facility on the T610 seems almost useless to me!

I want to assign various tasks to "shortcuts" so I only need to do
1 or 2 keypresses to access them. It seems that the "My Shortcuts"
facility only allows you to add activities to the "My Shortcuts"
menu, rather than allowing you to configure them to operate on,
for example, long presses on numbers. (e.g. long press on "3" might
do a "Send and Receive"). But I can't get this, or anything like it.

Is this "Shortcuts" "facility" really as useless as it seems to me,
or am I missing the way to make it useful?

Thanks in advance.

Whatever shortcut you assign to Position 1 can be accessed by moving the
joystick to the left. I have it set to switch Bluetooth on and off, for
example.

Whoah, great.

I already figured that out. But thanks anyway.

So effectively the T610 gives you ONE "real" shortcut.

Don't get me wrong; I'm not knocking you, and thanks for the answers.

Aaaahhhh!

Now that is worth knowing. Thank-you.

Still not ideal, but yes, better than I thought.


Thanks for that.
