The Nokia 5700 XpressMusic is lacking the edit key as well. I have not managed to capture a screenshot on that device with your application. Any thoughts on that?

But..hold on.. I tried it with left shift key. and it works!, seems that the edit key is replaced by left shift key in E61.

@Jammu: Thanks for testing it in N93. I have removed the reference to N93 too. So for now it is only missing from N92 only.

Seems to work ok with N93 that I have.

It’s good if only N92 that lacks of Edit key. Hope all future phones will have Edit key.
Anyone can help me testing my Screenshot in N93? I heard that it doesn’t work in N93 (perhaps because they change the key code for Edit key in N93).

I just checked the Nokia’s website and the pictures of the phones there. It seems only N92 is lacking the edit-key on the N-series. N93 clearly has one in the pictures. Also, I took a look of a proto N93 and it has the edit key. On N92, I found no button to do the tasks edit button should be doing, like copy-pasting. All E-series phones have the edit key (in E61 it’s shift).

@Harry again: I hope that there is another replacement for Pen key too. Unfortunately Media key seems to behave differently. When we press it, it launch the list of shortcuts. So I don’t see an option to assign it to different tasks, like copy and paste.
