Yes, use Wisbar Advanced 3 j/k but no you need wisbar advanced 2 or 3.

Even more reason to use WA2 or 3 it makes your X button, work as it should; Closing apps: freeing RAM.
It is an extensive task manager that can be skinned in its full glory.
It even lets you know how much RAM/Program memory you have on the top bar.

I myself use Oxios Memory in combination with WA2 to keep my Program memory under check & no App can run without me knowing it using WA2, unlike if you didn't have it & you had to open your settings>memory to find out.

Vista Portable is just one of many SKINS, more of which can be found here:

Again 1st timers should use WA2 before trying WA3.

Is it possible to use your bluetooth mouse with the 6800? I tried it...paired it...but didn't see no cursor

Is it possible with WM6?


Cheers!

Wktask gives me the most desirable features of WA (close app, running task task bar icons) without all the skinning and extra features I don't need. It uses a lot less ram, seems more stable and is free. I've used several versions of wisbar over the years from the original Wisbar through WA2. They're all great for individualizing the ppc, but I've always had some issues with stability with every release. I bought WA2 for my Axim, but it won't be moving over to my Mogul. If it works for you, great! Enjoy!

What was the last build you were using? The most recent WA2 release is as stable as it'll ever be. I can't claim the same for WA3/WAD.

you need both WAD and WA2 or WA3?

i thought WA3 was an advanced version of WAD - their website is not clear enough.

i installed WA3 and the skins, but mine looks horrible in comparison!

WAD is very, very different. WAD calls for manual customizations that reshapes the WM's UI. It can be used in combination with WA2 & 3.

Use WA2 with the skins, like I said WA3 doesn't render the skins right among other things.

WA3 isn't as stable as WA2. Plus unless you're patient with customizations, I wouldn't get WAD either.

I absolutely agree. I have spent probably a total of 75 hours trying to get WAD just right. Its amazing now. If I can find the screenshot app I'll post a picture here

All you need is Quick Menu. It does everything you just described. Incredibly stable program with a small footprint...plus it's free. It replaces the start icon so when you click it there is a full cascading menu. It also puts a battery/ram monitor in the top bar and it has a task manager built into the cascading menu. The kicker is that the actual word "Start" is still my original WM6 menu. Clicking on the icon will open up Quick Menu. So it's really like having two Start menus in one. Or if you want you can set a tap to Quick Menu and a tap & hold to the original WM6 Menu. You can also set which programs you want on the menu, OK to close apps, etc.

IMO, it's a must have. It has the best features of several other programs and it hardly takes up any room.

The 1st pic is the standard WM6 menu. Notice how it's highlighted.

The 2nd & 3rd pics are of Quick Menu.

Sounds good, I was weary about Quick Menu.
WkTask is interesting, its missing some of my preferred features but who can complain, its free. I'm surprised I never hear of it.

Still didn't find a huge difference in RAM usage from WA2 with WkTask.
Quick Menu however is practically weightless, small footprint indeed, I'm getting 26MB RAM.

WA2/WKTask= 23-24, but to be fair, these are more feature packed...

That's strange because MemMaid has wktask's process at ~31kb and I my ram usage doesn't change noticeably with it loaded or not.

I totally agree. WA2/3/D are just wastes of space, IMO. They take up an obscene amount of ram and really don't do anything. I tried the 7-day trial...and it was 6.5 days more than I needed to decided and I hated it. Even when I tried to remove them it gave me problems. I was tired of running on 10 megs of RAM everyday + the constant leak. I deleted and now I'm averaging 25 megs after a soft reset and 17 by the end of the day.

Deleted WA2/3/D was probably one of the best mods I ever did.

dude, thanks for the fake video.

you are using wisbar advance desktop and some more apps.

when you restart after boot up screens, it showed the traditional today, soon you showed leds.

but nice work.
