Favorite Contact App ?

I'm looking for a favorite contact wiget like the one on the HTC eris the one that comes preloaded on the first screen to the right of the start home screen.
Is there such an app/widget available for the moto droid?
Also is there a battery app/widget like the HTC eris ?
I'm the new guy here and new to the moto droid just got it today so if I'm asking stupid ?'s please don't be too hard on me
Thanx ö

The closest widget I have found so far is people/contacts widget.

The demo works good was going to buy the full app but my credit card will not let me pay €0.89 . Stupid card will not let my buy anything unless it's listed as US dollars. Guess I'll just use the demo till it run's out of time, and keep trying to find something else to fit my needs...

Dunno about a non-paid people widget, but the Gauge Battery Widget is pretty nice.

Launcher pro plus has a widget similar to htc's now. Apparently the dev is planning on incorporating a few htc style widgets. The cost is 2.99 at the moment through paypal.

I found the HTC battery widget in the market, if it's not available in your stock market try using an alt market like "my market" as for a contacts widget, if your running adw or launcher pro I like Droid contacts coupled with sync my pics. It gives you a decent contact widget that syncs with your Facebook pics.

I'm probably going to have a spending spree with live wallpapers, then complain about my battery and resort to a static wallpaper

Google Earth for me

Favorite ROM
CyanogenMod

CyanogenMod by far the Dialer App is lot more user friendly..

Interesting you say that, I find Sense's dialer much quicker to use. Being able to dial up a contact by name rather than use the phone book is very nice.
Personally, Liberated is my choice, particularly now that it has the OC kernel on it. It's very fast and I get to keep Sense, which (if you ask me) HTC did incredibly well for Android.

Liberated all the way

I like Cyanogenmod and Liberated Froyo, I keep a backup of both on my SD card at all times

Cyanogenmod by far. Its customizabilty and features make it superior in my opinion. And anything you might miss about sense can pretty much be found in an app.

I would LOVE TO USE Cyanogenmod
The one thing that makes it unusable for me is their Exchange Email implementation.
No touch copy-n-paste
No embedded graphics
No Pinch Zoom
I dont want to have to buy Touchdown for $30 when the HTC Sense email works great.
Anyone else have this issue?

launcherpro plus
circle battery widget
minimalistic text widgets
launcherpro icons app
desktop visualizer
those are my mainstays for visual customizations. I also use the Minimal Magic theme with the theme chooser built into the CM7 roms.

I ended up using Adw ex, pure calendar, pure grid calendar, battstat pro, pure music player, fancy Widgets pro, SMS unread count, blue theme for cm7, and senses theme for cm7 and I'm pretty happy with it. I had beautiful Widgets before fancy Widgets but it seemed to have raped my battery so I switched

I gave it a trial run.. its kind of a memory hog and it also runs a little choppy but its not completely bad. Not sure how it will run if you're not overclocked.. it does look pretty good though. I ended up going back to Adw ex though

Good info, thanks.

Petition for bookmark widget

I emailed the devs of fancy widget with my request for a bookmark widget. They said with enough request the would develop one. This is the only thing I'm missing from sense. So please go to the market and flood their email.

Launcher Pro Plus has a Sense like widget, I highly recommend Launcher Pro if you aren't using it already.

I know but I prefer adw cuz its more customizable. I also bounce back between cm7 and miui. Miui with the bookmark widget would be sweet.
