Default How do I make my new 2215 look familiar?

I just upgraded from my old Casio E-125 (PPC 2000) to a new h2215. Now, however, comes the fun part of trying to get everything set up the way I like it. On my Casio, I used Novosec's Pocket Facelift to get the "look and feel" of a PPC 2002, and it gave me some nice Today screen options, like showing battery life and memory usage. I also liked being able to close a program with the "X" rather than minimize it (how do you close a program that doesn't have an Exit option from its own menu?!?).

I'm assuming I will need to get some kind of Today plug-in. But which one is most user-friendly/fully featured?

Thanks for any pointers.

Personally, I enjoy WisBar Advance. Although, I'm sure you will quickly find that everyone has their own 'personal' choice

For the close the program with the X... WiseBar Advance works GREAT!! and does a few other things too

As for today screen plug in with batt/memory info, etc.. Tom Gigears BatMemTime

There are a couple program launchers for the Today screen available...tdLaunch and cLaunch
