Tasks and More Appointments on the Homescreen


Recommended Posts

Anyone know of a good plugin to get a list of your tasks to show up on the home screen? I tried using http://www.oxios.com/plugins/ but it only showed 1 task at a time which was not very helpful.

Also, how can I get all of the day's appointments to show up on the homescreen instead of just the one closest in the future?

I'd like to maintain for the most part the simplicity of my Windows Default homescreen just with this added functionality. Facade has this functionality but it puts SO much on the homescreen and it just seems cluttered/overwhelming to me. Any ideas?

Hello dshap,

try TodayAgenda. It's free and you can setup whatever information about actual tasks or apointment you would like on your home screen:

Infos about the SW: http://www.tiews.info/index.php?show=softw...nda_news.de.art

This home page is in German, but the SW comes in different languages (e.g. English, Italian.....).

Download: http://www.tiews.info/index.php?show=softw...enda%2Fdownload

This SW is exactly what I was looking for as a replacemnet of the MS today PlugIns.

Isn't this only for the PPC? I installed this and nothing happens. Doesn't seem to put anything anywhere except in the root\Program Files directory.

Hi jbone,

I'm not sure, but there is a version also for screens with other resolutions (like square) and you don't need the touchscreen to use the program. I personally use more the d-pad to navigate through the display.

The requirement states that you need PocketPC 2003, PocketPC 2003 SE, Windows Mobile 5.0 or Windows Mobile 6.0, so it may be worth to give it a try (I use version 1.1).

Did you switch the SW on in the Today-screen?

I was using Samsung Popup as my Homescreen. Is that what you mean? Not sure what you mean by "Today-screen" or even "MS Today." All I know is that the program installs and I see nothing new. At least an entry was made for me to automatically uninstall.

Have you actually installed and run this program on the BJII?

Hi Jbone,

no I'm using a standard Wizard and I thought except for the different screen size and the non-touchscreen functionality the phones should work nearly the same. With my standard Windows Mobile I can setup the start screen (Today-Screen) by clicking start and then settings. In the setting choose Today and you find the possibility to switch on and off Today-Plug-Ins or change the look of the Today-Sreen and so on. I thought your devices work nearly the same, but if not: Sorry for the incompetent answers... :D

This program looks sweet but it is definitely not working on the BJ2 :-\

Anyone other solutions out there?
