All done, but what to use the extra screen-estate for?

OzVGA, Wisbar Advance, VJ big phone.
So now I have all this extra screen-estate to fill on the today screen.
Any suggestions on some nifty/useful apps that can run on the today screen?
I wouldn't mind a better contact list program then the horrible WM5 crippled do-one-contact-at-a-time.

Will ContactBreeze, PocketBreeze, etc. work with VGA? I use these with my Wizard and find them really useful...

Yes, and a heck of a lot prettier than qvga, too!

Pocketbreeze is great. Thanks.

I've tried OzVGA and that TrueVGA thingy but with the latter I wasn't able to get the signal indicator, start menu etc to show.
Which is best? Can someone post a screenie showing everything working?
Cheers
Ant

I'd be lost without Pocketbreeze these days...

Hey, are you using VJBigPhone for WM6 [d'oh, Athena is WM5 right?]
Post some screenshots!
You get more then ample space for space eaters, so use PHM tools to have a slideshow on your phone, Media player control plugin, big PhoneAlarm theme etc.
I do quite like SPB Shell as well.

Is there an API for Manila?
Can someone give me helpful URLs?
Thanks in advance,

Weather plug-in for Today page in WinMo 6.5

Hi all
Now the Today page is much improved I've ditched TF3D which is simply too bloated for me. I've rooted around the XDA dev site and tried the Showaco Titanium Weather plug-in but it doesn't work for me.
I'm seeking advice and suggestions if only to redirect me to the correct XDA sub forum.
Many thanks
Tony

search for cheroclock. it has weather in it. and lot of other titanium plugins have it as well...

I also looking for the weather panel, but I dont need the clock, just something simple.

titanium

loving the new today screen, but would like to have weather there as well

Thanks for this. I know nothing of the other installs required (mortscript and chrome editor)
I'll try to research the process and install this.
If any other have any other weather plugin ideas please come forward!
Tony

It's not free but it's not expensive either. Elecont is the best weather program I've ever used and it now has a Titanium plugin. www.elecont.com

TF2D with animated background ?

Dear M2D developers,
Is it possible to have a version of M2D with the ability to supprt animated background / gif image etc?
I have read somewhere that we can use other today plugins alongwith M2D with the help of a cab posted somewhere in this forum. I tried to use "GIF today" plugin but that didnt work
It Would be real cool if the GIF support is integrated within the M2D itself.
Dunno really, just an Idea that seems to be quite achievable with kind of experties you guys have

Today's plugin

Hi All,
I want to use couple of today's plugin in my Jade, but Manila 2D is stopping for displaying any of those plugins in Today screen.
So, I used to turn off TouchFlo to use any of those plugins and then starting touchFlo again, but it is very cumbersome process.
Please advice how can I use Today's plugins without turning OFF and ON the touchFlo.
Thanks!!
