Re: Suggestions for useful Today plug-ins?



Steve,

I've done reviews of both NewsBreak and Insight and I like both of
them. Insight doesn't have a Today screen plug in though so that is
going to pretty much eliminate it for you in this case.

Spb Insight Review:

Diary is essentially to put your PIM information on your Today screen.
I love this application personally. It was in my Top 10 Applications
list this year and I reviewed it earlier this fall.

The cool thing with the Spb applications is if you have Pocket Plus
from them, all of them can integrate into one Today plug in saving you
screen space. Unfortunately Insight won't integrate yet but Diary,
Finance, Time will.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far. I already use PocketBreeze and
PocketWeather from SBSH with much success. I just this week tried Live
Search Beta and I'm impressed, unfortunately no Today plug-in and I don't
live in one of the cities that they report traffic in so I'm out of luck
there.

I currently use NewsBreak from Ilium for RSS feeds. Does anyone know how
this compares to SPB Insight? I like NewsBreak but its Today plug-in is very
limited. Is Insight better in this regard?

Edgar, what do you use SPB Diary for?

So I already have weather, launcher, and RSS apps. I don't need any for
messenging or contacts. What else is out there?
