Push buttons are used on Palm OS like radio buttons are used on desktop 
OSes.  They show a group of choices, and the selected button indicates 
what is currently selected.  Usually, when you have push buttons, you 
put them in a group and only allow one to be pushed at a time.

Perhaps you should use a graphical button and make your own bitmap with 
the "2" and "ABC".
