I just found that great Windows Mobile application. AE Button plus:

This application allows you to map any function to the different hardware buttons. Instead of only controlling the Volume, I have set the VolumeUp button to open the Task manager and the VolumeDown button to do ALT+Tab, both on double click.
The amount of possible combinations is amazing. AEB plus also recognizes triple press and long press. This application is definitely a must have. You could for example allocate the camera function to the hang up button which is great if like me you are using the default Windows Mobile UI.

As a recent article in Edge indicated, Rare will be laying off some of their staff. I was unfortunate to be part of those and my last day at Rare will be this Friday 27th.
Things are not too bad though, I already have few things lined up and even got some really interesting offers in feature, TV and games. I was really tempted to take some long holidays in South America but since in this business it is all about timing, I will instead focus on choosing the best offer for my career.
I have had a great time at Rare and enjoyed every minute of it. From the first day everybody was really friendly and welcoming and it didn’t take me too long to become part of the Rare family. After 18 month, it is sad to be leaving all the talented people I met there but I am sure I will meet them again in the future!
