Plugin that shows Batterystatus on the homescreen !

[Guest mwille]

Greg Frieger has released version 1 of his plugin to show the batery status on the homescreen ! It's excellent ! Here's the "salespitch" :

SmartBatt puts a bar on your smartphone's home screen that shows a vital information about your battery - its life in days, hours and minutes.

Now you don't need to worry if you have enough power left until end of a day - SmartBatt show it on your home screen. It will notify you if your phone is running low. It will notify you that battery have been charged. It will even roughly measure a temperature arounf you !

SmartBatt is fully configurable so it could be fitted in any Home screen layout.

Features:

Shows battery life in days, hours and minutes

Shows time until battery is fully charged

Plays a sound file when your battery is low or fully charged

Shows battery temperature in degrees of Celsius or Fahrenheit

Fully configurable via home screen xml.

Not on your homescreen you can't..

The man spent countless hours making this, so he's more than intitled to ask that tiny amount. I guess you work for free, right ?!

1hr 45mins left from a battery 96% full????? hehe, man, i'd get your battery replaced ;P

I don't dispute he's entitled to it, but given that lots of other people have developed plug-ins for free I've now been spoiled and won't pay for them. so ner :lol:

Hehe, maybe I should have taken the screenshot a bit later :lol:

It continuasly calculates time left and it was just done ccharging so the readind isn't accurate yet.. It now shows 74% and 1 day, 10 hours, 17 min left :D

Ehh... that's what I hate about the big city. Deal with lots of spoiled boys and girls and they never want to give the poor guy his due even when he's clearly earned it!!!!

He's got my $3. Given what others have been demanding for really stupid stuff, this one ranks as an important add in...
