Button Launch is a utility to let you launch applications (and prefence panels) by combinations of the hardware buttons.
Button Launch uses 6 of hardward buttons (the two scroll buttons and the four "application" buttons) in two ways: a short tap (tap) and a long press (tap and hold for more than 1/3 of a second).
The idea is that you set one of your application buttons to launch Button Launch.
Then you push the button you've assigned to a given application and Button Launch takes you there.
Thus, if you assign the "memo pad" button to Button Launch and, in button Launch assign a short-tap on the memo pad button to the memo pad, two taps on the memo buton will get you to the memo pad.
A tap on the memo button and a tap on the todo button might get you to the Mail application, and so on.
