New Release

Slide Beta 3

Tweaks to this Version include:

1. CycleText
With CycleTextOff=0 will Increase the Font greatly of all the previous calls to the registry such as:
a. Last Caller
b. # of Unread Exchange Emails / Other Emails
c. # of Unread Text Messages

Plus each one will cycle approximately every 10 seconds.

The appointments will remain constant and with a slight increase in the font.

CycleTextOn = 1 will revert to the smaller font (though slightly larger than the original) and all calls to the registry will remain constant on the screen.

2. Battery Saver
This is still an ongoing task, but it works much better now.
When you first start the slide.exe the program with be in Batt-Sav Off Mode. Which simply means it will continue to run at full power (minus a 7ms snooze to allow for the notifications to come through). If you move the slider to the right and release (or simply push the slide to the far left) the program will be in Batt-Sav On Mode. Which means it will continue to run for about 20-30 seconds and then completely pause. It can be rewoke by tapping the screen. Note that updates to the calls will not refresh in Batt-Sav Mode unless the program is interrupted or you touch the screen. I haven't been able to measure the battery savings so your help here would be appreciated. Battery Saver should work in all modes.

3. I tweaked the slider a little more and now it has a little bit more fluid like motion.

I'll post a squre version in about 12 hours or so.

Please post feedback. This still will not boot up as quick as A_C's with his new ilock.exe program but this one should use less memory.

Unzip all contents onto your ppc and overwrite the previous slide. Do not rename slide.exe.
