You can easily specify to show appointments one to seven days into the future. Notes entered with your appointments can also be displayed by tap-n-holding the stylus on a specific displayed appointment. Also, to save screen space you can "hide" the appointment display and just show the top QuickAgenda bar.</i> <br />Version 2.9 busts onto the scene with the following improvements: <br /><br />• "Modernization" of the popup message dialog box to have rounded corners, adjustable window size, etc.<br />• Added the category filter option and adjusted some of the drawing locations on the screen to accommodate the category filter label.<br />• Adjustments were made to the display position of the time text to maximize the amount of space available for the subject text.<br />• Other changes were made to the position of the displayed items to minimize the amount of vertical space on the screen.<br />• For time display, using "a" and "p" instead of "am" and "pm" (to save screen space).<br />• Corrected an issue with the notes icon not being drawn in the correct location for multi-line subject text.<br />• Modified vertical scroll bar to have small up/down arrow controls for single-line scrolling.<br />• Made some significant changes to include user-defined colors for text, controls, etc.<br />• Option to only show start time.<br />• Added new color picker control.<br /><br />Current owners of QuickAgenda can download this update (free) from the <a href="www.scarybearsoftware.com">Scarybear site.</a> You can also <a href="http://www.handango.com/brainstore//PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&amp;jid=DB33B22311947FXBD89F14BF83E97AC4&amp;platformId=2&amp;productType=2&amp;productId=25153&amp;sectionId=0&amp;catalog=30">purchase it at Handango</a> for the ridiculously low price of just $9.95.

Just downloaded it and it does not work with WM2003SE. I guess it looks okay on WM2003, I just can't see it.

I've use it for several months now, along with QuickTasks and QuickQuotes. It works great, is easily configured -- font size and color, number of days and lines to display, collapses to take up less screen real estate and can open several PIM's, including Pocket Informant, which is my lifeline.

Have a look at the latest test version of PIToday- it's simply great.

I've used Scarybear's Today plugins for years. Hadn't grabbed this new update yet but have been taking advantage of the free updates forever. I have Quick Calendar, Quick Agenda, Power Level and Quick Tasks on my Today screen. The apps do what they are designed to do and do it well.

Pandemonium Ensues!
I don't use this, but I was curious what pandemonium ensued. :?:

I have been using it from my first Pocket PC and up to my latest iMate, since version 1.x, and it is the first application I install, together with Pocket Plus.

After you get used to it, it is a very friendly application, easy to install and configure, and useful.

Been using it since 2002. Glad to see that Scary Bear just continues to tweak an already great application.

Sorry, that should have been "pandAmonium". (http://www.newmoanyeah.com/2002-reviews/112202_pvp_panda_attack.php) :mrgreen:

As in, that's one scary panda bear.

Um, yeah.

Well, you DID ask...
