The H1 (Firmware 3.04) has a configurable action button. Similar to various older Garmin devices.

But I only can choose from:
- Flashlight
- Siren
- Activity Control
- Mark Waypoint
- Screenshot
- None

Thats all?

Why not ..
... a "screen look/unlock"- function as in older devices (ex. the Oregon)?
... open directly an app (like Geocaching or better: one of the functions there)?
...

There are a few more on the H1i Plus:

• Camera
• Flashlight
• Siren
• Activity Controls
• Mark Waypoint
• Screenshot
• Check-In
• Voice Command
• None

Hopefully they will add more options with future updates.

Requested thus far:

• Screen On/Off
• Device Lock/Unlock
• Show/Hide Dashboard
• Open user selected Application or Page
• Open user selected Settings Page
• Status Page
• Main Menu

Even I still do not like the H1 due the current state of FW (Version 5.0.9), the added functions to the action button seems to work and are helpfull:
I like to lock the screen by pressing the action button while putting the H1 into my pocket.

The following Action Button options were added with the Firmware 5.09 update:

• Mute
• Lock Device
• Show/Hide Dashboard
• Open App
• Open Settings
• Status Page
• Main Menu
