App shortcuts

I think you can only have the two, unless Nokia bring out a third or fourth one (or fifth?). My advice would be to only put in shortcuts that don't already exist on your home screen by other means, like the following:

Clock/Alarm - You can access these by pressing on the clock
Calendar - Press the date to bring this up
Music Player - If you have the music widget on your homescreen, just access the music player from that instead
Camera - Open the shutter to use this automatically, or just press the camera button.
Call Log - Press the green call key
Profiles - Press the on/off button
Right Selection Key - Don't forget about this, it's another vital shortcut 😊

Do you know JBak Taskman ? When you have it running , you can set the Alpha-Numerical hardware keys to open Applications . 36 keys !
I am not sure for the N97 , but the website says simply Symbian 9xx .
Anyway it works in 9.1 , 9.2 and 9.3 .
