Where is the "new" option on left softkey?

[Guest impy78]

I have noticed, looking at theme sites etc etc that other WM5 devices have a softkey entitled "new2, which brings up a menu... like this example....

Yet the default on my MDA Compact II is "messaging" and when I try to alter the softkey options, this isn't one of the options listed.

The other week, I went into the T-Mobile shop, where there had an MDA Compact on display, with the "new" menu.

Am I missing something here, or is there any way i can configure the thing so this appears as an option?

Thanks

The images looks like a WM2003 device to me...

So no-one has this on a WM5 device?

Yeah this is from WM2003, you would need a program to run this I'd imagine.

Don't know if you have found anything yet but if not have a look Here seems someone on XDA Dev was feeling the same as you and managed to program a app to simulate the new function but he has improved it.
