I'm a longtime Palm user. And one of my favorite hacks that I used countless times per day was SilkHack which divided up the graffiti area into rectangles that I could program to launch certain 3-party applications.

For instance, the bottom right rectangle of my HOME icon launched JFile and the bottom left launched QED.

Well, now for Christmas, I got a new Palm PDA and have synched all my stuff over to it. Now I'm wading through all the apps/hacks I had installed and seeing what works with Palm OS 5.

Actually, now that I look under INFO, it says Palm OS software 3.5.3 so now I'm even more confused. I thought this Zire31 came with OS 5.

So know I guess I have 2 questions....

One, am I using OS 5 or 3.5.3?
Two, is there any hack out there like SilkHack? I'm dying without it! And if not, any suggestions on quickly being able to launch several 3-party applications.
