Yes, that's what I meant.

I agree in part; there's some odd reason that it's never the same as what SPB Weather actually says, but I don't think it's completely independent. When I use SPB Weather, I can get weather for my tiny little town (not available in the built in Weather tab), AND I have a functional weather icon in the Now screen.

When I use WeatherPanel, the weather icon on the Now screen is always a "Cloudy Sun" and has "N/A" under it.

Which is too bad.

It's too bad that SPB Weather isn't as skinnable as WeatherPanel. Of course, WeatherPanel is just so good there's little reason not to use it... I'm just afraid that at some point it's going to stop working and without any developer support it will just die...
