Wisbar 1.0 Beta Released
http://www.pelmarinc.com/
It looks like at least one developer has taken the WisBar code and created an updated and improved version for Pocket PC 2002. This is really great for those of us who use the program religiously until Pocket PC 2002 came around when the program started to disagree with the new operating system. If the new version is anything like its predecessor, this is a great program for replacing the task bar with something far more functional; in addition, this program doesn't try and provide too much functionality, as a result the program doesn't affect the running speed of the operating system at all and is very easy to use, without confusing menus or option screens. I look forward to seeing a new and improved version of WisBar soon!
Thanks to Mark Weston for pointing this out.

I think the versioning number needs to be updated too so it doesn't confuse with the original Wisbar.

New version is 1.1.0 (beta)
Hi,
After installing the beta, the about box claims the version number to be 1.1.0 (beta) not 1.0.
I was using the old version with my upgraded iPaq, but I'm now loosing less of the 2002 functionality when using it.... excellent! 
I also like the option to hold the close button to shutdown a program rather than minimize it... although the time delay could be reduced.
Regards,

:cry: I am trying out the beta and have some problems with it, nothing happens when I tap on the battery meter (according to the beta information it should go to the power properties. Also the volume control in not functioning, even if I go to the menu and select volume control? I am using it on an Ipaq 3765.

The website indicates that the notification is on the to-do list. It is now done?

The window that opens still opens... the icons in the toolbar however that you need to click on to open the bubble window does not show up. These are the ActivSync icon, Messenger message waiting icon, etc.

The Volume control works fine for me. The battery icon does not work but I use PowerStore anyway so that no problem.
