SBSH PocketBreeze 4.3 Released
"PocketBreeze - a Today screen plug-in for Pocket PC devices allowing you to view appointments, tasks, and email accounts status directly on your Today screen. Giving you a more intuitive interface to manage your daily agenda with up to 30 days agenda display, appointments and tasks in a joint display, advance tasks management and your contacts' birthdays and anniversaries. PocketBreeze integrates seamlessly with Agenda Fusion, Pocket Informant, and the default PIM. PocketBreeze new major version is out! with version 4.3 you will find lots of new features and improvements making PocketBreeze the most powerful Today screen plug-in."
There's no denying the fact that PocketBreeze is one of the best PIM Today plugins available in the market, and what better way to reinforce that fact than to be updated with a whole collection of new features and bug fixes. Those of you who were active in beta testing Version 4.3 will know what it's all about. For those who don't, this new release adds a custom tab, dynamic tab loading technology, and a new VGA look. A full list of changes can be found here. If you own PocketBreeze 4.x, then this new release is a free update for you. If you've still yet to try PocketBreeze, then now is a great time to check it out. The Pocket PC Thoughts software store has a free trial version on offer, and if it's to your liking, the full version can be purchased for $14.95.

Advantages?
I use PocketInformant. Are there any advantages of adding Pocket Breeze? If so, what are they?
Thanks!

4.3 is still listed as public beta on the PB site. The reason I mention this is because I had trouble with an earlier beta version of 4.3 which caused problems with my 2750.

Hi jngold_me 
Where is it listed as a beta version? as much as I know we updated all the text on our site and the files are of course updated 
Regarding the issue you had with the beta versions, which issue was it? do you know if it was reported?

I tried one of the early betas and it looked really nice. I would immediately jump for it if it supported more than one custom-tab and more than one custom plugin on one tab. I think I also saw a remark that this was planned on their site, but there was too much traffic in the beta-discussions to monitor, so I don't know if hat is dumped forever or will come (soon?). Can you comment on that, Amit?

, rest assured it will come in a later update. The plan was to ensure that the custom tab concept would function correctly before it was expanded upon.
The way the PB skins are designed is already living proof of this. Skinned icons for the current custom tab are designated as custom1_baricon_sel/nsel. When the support for more custom tabs is introduced, the naming convention will continue on to custom2, custom3, and so on.

It seems as though your version history page has now been updated since my posting above.
As for the issue, it seemed as though while using a 4.3 beta, my 2750 would not start up properly each morning and required a soft-reset to start. When I uninstalled the beta and re-installed the 4.2.1 production version, the problem disappeared. Methinks a conflict was created but all I know is that the issue has not reoccured using 4.2.1.

Dammit! I just purchased and installed v4.2 last night. :?
Silly me I promised the girlf that I was finished playing with my shiny new toy and could pay her some attention now (just got my hx4700 last week and have been playing with it ever since, much to the jealousy of aforementioned girlf).
I'll have to try and install the update on the sly - does that qualify as cheating? :devilboy:
