Typically don't these multimedia keyboards come all "web-enabled"? I'll
bet the "refresh" button is for refreshing your Currently Viewed Web
Page In Internet Explorer (R) (TM) (C) (ABCDEFG).
Why you'd want that, I'm not sure... but its there none-the-less! Even
more useless (IMO) is the "Close window" key... I _know_ I would
accidentally hit it, when I was trying to hit another MMKey, and close
my current window. And that's really annoying. Just my 2/100th of a
dollar.
