"I spend all day indoors behind a computer...therefore, whenever I get the chance, I love to get outside: walking the dog, riding my bike, rollerblading, you name it. Unfortunately, thanks to the weather, the experience is not always pleasant. Being a Type Zero civilization, humankind has yet to learn how to control the weather...well if you can't control it, you need to know what Mother Nature is up to. Enter Fizz Weather."



This has always been a great application. If you haven't tried Fizz Weather here is a nice little review. Give it a read and if you like give it a try. I have used Fizz Traveler (more features) for years and have appreciated what it can do.

Does this program give current conditions as well as forecasts?

I simply hate Fizz Weather's menu system. Am I the only one that thinks i is very confusing??? I'm surprised thre's not more weather choices out there for the Smartphone as opposed to the PPC and Palm devices.

Yes, it does. You have the option set up updates every "x" minutes or only when phone is hooked up thru Active Sync. I personally like Fizz Traveler as it has weather, currency, and much more features for almost the same price. I have been using Fizz Traveler for a long time and really like it esp. the plug in functionality.

I also am not a big fan of the usability of the app. It takes a bit getting used to. Are you talking about the View menu? Have you tried View->Options->Selector. Change Selector to Icons instead of default. You get a nice iPhone like icon view. I think Apple copied the Fizz menu. ;-)

Talking about crazy menus, how can I find out which version of Fizz Weather I am running? :?

I agree on both items. I, too, find the menu system to be confusing. I think there will be more choices, especially since the latest generation of Smartphones have made a breakthrough of sorts.

Yeah, I've tried both. It just doesn't seem like anyone thought out the order of things. It took me days just to figure out how to add a new city.

I wanted to add that Fizz Weather has the kind of UI that would work well on a touch screen device.
