Creating Shortcuts

Shortcuts are different than the current Home screen Widgets
that only launch an application. Shortcuts activate a feature,
action, or launch an application.
Note: To move a shortcut from one screen to another, it must first be deleted
from its current screen. Navigate to the new screen, then add the
shortcut.
