Default Pocket Plus 1.2 Released

http://www.softspb.com/products/poc...plus/index.html

Spb has finally released a long-awaited upgrade to Pocket Plus. New features/enhancements include:
  • Storage card and Memory panels in Today plug-in
  • Shortcuts to documents, custom products, Control Panel applets in Today plug-in
  • Brightness support for many new devices
  • 'Close All Inactive' in the X button context menu
  • Customizable list of programs that are minimized instead of closing
  • Repeating alarms for tasks and clock, more alarm settings
Too bad I'm not near my cradle... I'll have to wait until tomorrow. In the meantime, you can buy a copy from PocketGear (affiliate link).

THANK YOU Spb!!!!!!!!!

Too bad Jason isnt here to announce it.

Wow, I have to install this immediately.
Ok, wow, the features are good, especially like the battery percentage option, to storage memory, the settings in the today shortcuts, the mnew battery options...I just have to compliment these guys for doing an amazing job.

ps. is it just me or does it seem like pocket plus makes the today screen load up slower?

i too want to recommend this program! It's great... and so simple. Has everything you would need in a ppc, at a small footprint and memory consumption that makes it seem as if it's not even there. It's well integrated as well.

I worked w/ the support (Vasilli? sorry for the bad spelling) and the dev was able to get the backlight working on the Asus... very responsive.

Just downloaded and installed this. Great software!

This looks to be a pretty good competitor to Battery Bar. I've tried both (trial versions) and Pocket Plaus is the one I've laid my $$ on.

Great...now my alarms WON'T stop repeating. So why did they remove the "Play it for" option?

PocketGear is SLOOOOOOOOW. Took me forever to push my order through.

Anyway, used PocketPlus for 14 days - that's how good it was. Yes, I got so used to it being around, I never got around to buying it. Ordered it tonight, but will have to wait for the code. The new version looks like it will resolve some of my requests.

At last! I've been waiting for this for a week. Ever since I saw the Foxpop review http://www.foxpop.ndirect.co.uk/Pock...ocket-plus.htm

Hmmm, quick question, I noticed that you can launch programs directly from the Today screen through program icons - just wondering if there is a feature like in BatteryPack where you can have multiple lines of program icons but visually kept to one line through the use of a scroll button....
