Default Adding Icons to botom of Today screen

I noticed PDANet adds a small icon on the bottom of the Today screen that lets you launch it from the Today screen; is there a way to add additional icons for otehr programs to the Today screen?

There're quite a few programs that can do this for your. The first that comes to mind is PHM Tray Launch, but unfortunately the website is still down at the moment (fire damage to the servers). The one I'm using currently is iLauncher from SBSH.

iLauncher's really good - everything I've ever wished for from a program launcher, but it is overkill for what you want.

You might be able to get Tray Launch if someone's hosted offsite, but the main website is still down as of just now (and has been for the last three months). You haven't mentioned which PDA you have - be aware that Tray Launch is not compatible with WM5 machines, AFAIK.

I agree with you. iLauncher is really a nice application. I used to be a user of it. It doesnt put stress on your ppc as other today plugins do. This is fairly light and I recommend you to give it a try. On the other hand, if you only want a tray-launcher, then, I think it would be a waste of money though :wink:

Default iLauncher

So I just got the 700w after having the i730 and love the increased one-handed operation. I downloaded a trial of iLauncher and the options are enormous, but seem to do everything I need.

Please tell me I'm missing an obvious setting because I cannot access the today screen icons of iLauncher without using a stylus?
