Root Create Shortcut or Widget for "Menu" Hard Button?

I'm running ApeX along with ADW EX. I seem to be using my hard "Menu" button like crazy, and I'm concerned about wearing the thing out. Does anyone know if its possible to create a shortcut or widget that would perform the same function as the Menu key on the Home screen?

Thanks.
 
I've had my X since July 1 (yes, 2 weeks early) and I use the menu button a lot, you don't need to worry about wearing it out.
 
those buttons are rather durable, trust me i have hit mine NUMEROUS times, when the menu icon starts to fade off thats when you can start to worry :)
 
Yeah seriously. I mean dumbphones have hard buttons and don't really have any serious problems.

I would not worry about it.
 
I just d/l'd button savior and am surprised that I like it. :)
 
I use Button Savior, a free app, and totally addicting.

Once you get used to it, it's a heck of a lot faster than using the hard buttons.
Thanks for the link. Almost exactly what I'm looking for, though the paid version would seems to be spot on since you can customize the buttons that display.
 
The more I use button savior, the more I like it. I used to like the hard buttons on my X, but since I went to using an otterbox, I like them less. I think I am going to buy the pro version of button savior just to kick a few bucks the developer's way.
