[android-developers] Re: In Android, how to get the keyevent of 'home Key' ?

But as Mark Murphy already pointed out in this thread, "Do not request
the HOME category unless *you
are a home screen*."

Mark Murphy is not only an outstanding Android programmer, one with
experience from very early in Android's short history, but one of the
star contributors to this forum, as well as the author of some very
good Android books. No one should disagree with his Android judgments
without a VERY good reason. Simply wanting to ignore the intended
design of Android and intercept the Home key is NOT one of these very
good reasons.
