Hi All

Wonder if you can help me I want to be able to see the battery status on the front screen rather than entering the menu system, O2 have a battery pack plug in that you can add in items under today showing status of back up and main battery that can be seen on the main screem

Does Orange have this anywhere as I cannot find it - if not is there some sort of tweak that can solve this ?

Regards
Pompey

You can get ahold of a number of Today plugins that will do this; the ones I use are from a company called Spb, it's called Spb Pocket Plus. It adds a tabbed section to your today screen with access to your calendar, notes, tasks, SMS/E-Mail/MMS... and if you get the Spb GRPS Monitor, you can add that into it as well (instead of displaying it seperately).

The only thing is these cost money.

Pocket Plus (at time of writing) is $24.95
GPRS Monitor is $19.95

but both are well worth it IMHO.

No problem ^^ If you're after just something to display your battery left though, and not the slew of info that PP provides, go to handago.com and have a search for today plugins. There should be more than a few around that just display basic system info (mem free, battery etc)
