Today Screen Advice Anyone?
 
Hey, all!

I am soon to get an HTC Touch for myself and I was wondering: For those of you who already have one, what is the best application for having multiple Today screens? I'm going to try to set-up the device so I can use my fingers or one hand to navigate, and I figured this would be the best way.

I plan to run HTC Home on the first, Weather Panel with the Phat Phinger theme on the second, and productivity tools such as calendar and tasks on the third.

I have tried Multidesk by v2r on my 6700, but the user interface much too slow and it's nearly impossible for me to use with one hand (I have big fingers).

Also, I want either an animated background OR an animated screensaver utility. Can anyone reccomend one for me?

Thanks in advance!

Spb Pocket Plus 4 without a doubt.

Thanks, it works great! However, it is unable to load the default Calendar and Tasks Today screen links. They appear at the bottom of the app always, and when I use Weather Panel with the Phat Phingers theme, everything is scrunched down at the bottom of my screen with that nasty scrollbar on the side.

I think I found a configuration that will work for now, though, but it forces me to use the weather panel in it's copact configuration.

Thanks for your help, regardless.

You can fix those issues pretty easily.
In the PP4 options make sure auto hide content is unchecked and then you can load the calendar, tasks, and weather panel inside the tabs.

I have a Calendar tab with pocketbreeze, a weather tab with weather panel phat phingers, and a program tab with a bunch of shortcuts.

I don't see how to load the default Windows Moble Calendar and Task Today screen items into a tab. The load underneath the tab sets, but not inside one of them. So I see them all the time at the bottom when I switch tabs.

This isn't working the way I need it to.

Ahh I see I just tried it and you are right.
I use SBSH Pocketbreeze which can be moved into a tab. You might want to give it a try. It's commercial though.

I tried to mess a little with the registry but still haven't found a way to put the standard calendar into a tab. I'm sure someone will find a way though.

I've found a solution for Calendar!
 
There is a little freeware utility called "Calendar+". It using the existing Calendar but extends it with more options:

It plugs right into SPP, no hitches. Plus it works much better than the original Calendar program.

Is there a way to add weatherpanel to the htc home weather tab?
