Pocket Plus lets you select the desired behavior for the X button.

Pocket Plus lets you select the desired behavior for the X button.
With Pocket Plus, the X closes programs by default, or you can click and hold it for a menu of choices: Close, Close All, Close All Inactive or Minimize, as shown here. It saves a lot of steps.

Another welcome addition with Pocket Plus is "smart scrolling," which allows you to scroll and pan Web pages in Pocket IE and other applications with your finger, similar to the touch scrolling on the iPhone. It also adds useful functions to the “click and hold” menu in File Explorer, including zip support, password-protected encryption, and file and folder properties (with the ability to change file extensions and file attributes such as Read Only).

One quirk: If you look for Pocket Plus in the Programs menu after you install it, you won't find it there. Instead, it goes into the Settings | System menu. To find out more about Pocket Plus, see the Spb Web site.
