I've tried Diamorph instructions and worked for me to create a launcher. Not exactly with the same parameters/lines:

/usr/share/applications/hildon/test-radio.desktop
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Name=test with radio
Comment=I'm trying
Exec=FMRadio
Icon=general_gmaps
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=System;TerminalEmulator;
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
#X-Osso-Service=xterm
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
After this, I've add a direct access to the desktop and this one is in the list by "test with radio".

me too, uploaded mine here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/540439yjc06advm/bookmark apps.rar
.desktop files go into /usr/share/applications/hildon/
png icons go into /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon

Look in:

/home/user/.bookmarks

in thumbnails/ (normal bookmarks) and home-thumbnails/ (desktop bookmarks).

You can open your filesystem in microb by opening file:///
navigate to the directory containing your pdf file
long click on the pdf file name and save bookmark on desktop
voilą

thanks Ernest,

was able to create a bookmark with my pdf file.
However, I tried to make a .desktop file with the above instruction but when coping it into the hildon folder, I was not able to do so with midnight commander, so I had to go for xterminal...sudo...
Is there any way to copy it easily...

you can go sudo gainroot in terminal and then start midnight commander with mc (I use mc -b)
