Yup.
The black rubbered key will lock/unlock the 2 front doors and hatch.
The silver keys aka 'valet' keys can lock/unlock the 2 front doors but cannot open the rear hatch.
The valet keys are pretty pointless in cars where you can access the trunk from the rear seat.

Yeah, I thought just getting one rubber key was cheap.

My paren'ts 03 Camry LE came with 2 rubber keys. I guess that's why it's a higher model than our cars.

I just tried the silver key in the hatch, it works, turn right to open the glass, left to open the whole hatch door.

i got 3 keys, 1 black, 1 silver with a toyota symbol and 1 plain key, as well as 2 remotes....

if you want a fancy key so bad just go and buy one... i dont see the big deal with it..... we are buying an economy car.... it's not a 130,000$ mercedes.... if we wanted those fancy things, we'd pay for them
