i noticed vistablissone doesnt include a landscape background, leaves grey areas either side. it is easy enough to mod the tsk to include one?

Please don't move or remove this thread
 It's likely to be a while until I get the 3100 and if I d/l all the apps now they'll be updated or simply bettered by the time I need 'em (sods law!)

Only if the battery has not been sitting on a shelf for too long
Still good to give it a top up charge of around four hours, and it should show a full charge before that time though. -------------------- Smartphone and PocketPC History

Thanks a lot for this post. The Battery stuff is awesome, and the Wireless Today plug-in is really useful. One thing that was annoying me with the M3100 default setup was how fiddly it was to turn wireless on and off.
