ThumbCal is what I use. Finger friendly and it replaces your current calendar
Just looked at thumbcal (screen shot page: http://www.thumbapps.com/pages/home/thumbcal/screenshots.php ) a little bit. A lot to like there, but it's missing two screens that, for me, are very important.
I'm using Pocket Informant right now. It's a quite complex program, and I know I'm only using maybe 20-40% of its functionality, but that's all I need. The two screen I referenced above are the week view, where the next seven days are displayed with appt names. And the month view, were I can see the fill month AND on the same screen see appts for the highlighted day. These are must have screens for me.
On the other hand, I do love how big and clear ThumbCal is and I do like the 'finger friendly' aspect of it. If they added those two views, I'd be very tempted to switch.
thx for both comments...trying thumbcal not...
Pocket Informant is what I use. I have used it ever since 2003 and it's great!

Tasks is nice on the 8125. Sort of a to-do list right?
it is a bit lame though, any way to get To-do's listed right on the today scrn rather than, "4 tasks, 1 high priority"?
You could try using the following applications
Tasks Plus
Calendar Plus
or my personal favourite which is Pocket Breeze
i tried Tasks Plus 1.4 but i cant seem to find how to change any options!
i do want something like it that lists the tasks on the screen.
thanks
Go to Start, Settings then select the Items Tab
Highlight Taskplus and click on Options
Voila
Can't beat PocketBreeze !
See below
Cheers

Hands down PocketBreeze. That coupled with their iLauncher software was the best $17 I spent on my phone so far. If you are effected by the weather and need to monitor it on a daily basis their PocketWeather software is very good also.... I used their software on my S60 phone and was sold from then on with sbsh...
yeah baby. pocketbreeze is cool! i run it and like it. here is some freeware to play with>>>
I love being able to access my calendar on my phone. However, it seems like I just get small chunks at a time with the built in calendar app. When I zoom out to see my whole week for example, I only see blue lines. I don't see exactly what the appointment is.
I know that is in no small way due to the limited size of the screen but I am looking for a more effective way to display my calendar.
I am currently trying pocket informant and it gets me closer to what I want. However, it has a couple screwy issues such as the bottom arrow of the scroll bar not being displayed etc.
So, what do you guys use? Or, are you happy with the built in calendar app?
Is there another forum that would be better for me to post this question? It's not directly related to the 8525 after all.
I'm using Pocket Breeze and very satisfied with it.
i use today agenda, its a killer app with many different customizations.. Dr. P got me hooked on this app!
http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda
I use SPB Diary, perfect today plugin that completely replaces the agenda. It's also the only today plugin I use or need.
I use SBSH.net PocketBreeze. I beta tested SPB Diary 2.0 and even tried the final version but wanted more control over customizing so I stuck by PocketBreeze. Still SPB Diary is also a fine product. You can't go wrong with either IMO. If you want to see your appointments in Calendar though I think you have to use one of those Power PIM apps [Agenda Fusion, etc etc] personally I find them overkill for my needs I stay with the default PIM and PocketBreeze.
I like pocketbreeze for the today screen display of the calendar. It's just when I go into the calendar app itself that I'm thinking there should be something better.
I'll check out your ideas. Anyone else?
I like the FREE Calendar+
http://www.mohairsofa.com/Default.aspx/document/10
Not a replacement for the MS Calendar, but rather a Today plugin.
I think it looks very similar to "View as Agenda" on blackberry.
also try out pocket informant alot of PB users also use that app.
Another vote for TodayAgenda. Excellent app. Free, small and highly configurable.
I've been using Pocket Breeze and Pocket Informant together since I had my old Orange M2000 and it works very well for me.
So I've done a bunch of searches on google and not really come up with any results. I'm looking for a pretty small (or adjustable height) today plugin which can display my most recently received emails, I like the email aspect of SPB diary, but I wouldn't really use any of the other tabs, and when I use it as a tab on ultimatelaunch all of ultimatelaunch's gesture commands get ignored (swipe left for left tab etc...), which I can't really deal with as I have other today plugins on my ultimatelaunch, plus SPB diary is like $20 and i'd prefer freeware if I can get it
If anyones knows of a plugin fitting that picky description let me know
Thanks.
PS: I'm also looking for an audio today-plugin with few more controls and not quite as compact as the htc audio manager today plugin, so if you know one I'd be grateful for that too
hello
excuse me for my bad english please.
You can use Today Agenda
pocketbreeze will do it as well and its not 8 years old

Today agenda last release is from January 2008!!
And if hey are here for 8 years, so they must have lots of experience
I'm using TodayAgenda but it doesn't display emails as far as I know
i must be dumb, cause i couldn't find anything about this in any of the Ultimatelaunch threads. i just started using UL yesterday and i want to use a combined tab for 3 today plugins. HTC Home, Tasks, Calendar. unfortunatly, tasks and calendar DO NOT appear in the Today Plugin menu in UL.. so instead i'm using SPB Diary.
does anyone have any idea how to add them?
thank you very much.
your right, UL cant display some of the build in original windows plugins, Daniel wrote me that they are completly different coded or something.
SPB Diary is too heavy for me.. i would like to use something lighter. can you recommend on something similar to the regular ones that i can add?
Today Agenda
try freeware: "todayagenda"

yep... same limitation for throttlelauncher. Only DLL based plugins have the possibility to be embeded inside other today plugin. You can check HKLM\software\Microsoft\Today\Items\*****\ (where ***** is the plugin name) for the key DLL. If it exists, the plugin can be embeded... If not... search for an alternative .

Hi Guys..
(Writing this on my tp2.. daaaiamn fast!!)
Highschool's starting here in holland and i'm looking for an application that makes me write down my homework and **** easily..
The default Calendar doesn't work for me because input is too complex and don't need the notes too appear in the homescreen..
Default 'Tasks' is no option either due to lack of overview..
Anyone has come across some kind of school diary software..?
Thankss..
SBP Diary maybe is what you need
Don't work

SPB Diary does not work on the Rhodium I like this prgrm used all the time but you can't see your appointments in the today screen anymore
Try Office One Note
One Note Mobile will hot sync with One Note Desktop software. So you can quickly capture thoughts on the go.
The desktop software is very good for organizing and searching your notes.
The mobile version is free on your phone. Microsoft has great deals for Student Editions, you may be able to get the desktop software for next to nothing.
Highly recommend it. I use it every day.
Try notes. You can hand write information in that.
