Hey all,

So I know there is tons and tons of freeware out there for PPCs, but a lot of it is somewhat lame. Does anyone know of a directory which has handpicked the best out there?

I ask becaues I desperately don't want to go through and install and uninstall loads of apps on my device making it slower and slower (I know I could hard reset once I'd found good sw but I use it as a phone and don't really want to lose my messages).

I'm specifically looking for a today screen plugin that displays > 1 calendar item, and perhaps the tasks.

I found TodayAgenda which looks great, amazing, the problem is when I click a task or a calendar item and it loads up the native app, it forgets my default input method which makes it completely useless.

I also found calendar+ 2.5.2, which I installed, but it didn't even show up on my device after installation.

I tried TaskPlus which also did not work.

Perhaps today screen plugins in particular don't like new versions of WM?

Thanks!

calendar+ is one of my favourite apps - i'm running 2.5.2 with 6.1 professional without any issues. what are you running ?

i'm also using birthdays which shows any upcoming birthdays (and hides when there are none) - it's very useful for remembering to get presents. :-)

thanks for reply. I'm using Win Mo 6 Pro, CE OS 5.2.1620, on an HP iPAQ 614c. This device seems somewhat quirky so maybe it is just a problem with the iPAQ.
