It's a nice app, but who really is going to sit for coffee on a day of 95 degree heat followed by a sweltering 84 degree low for the night.

Is this app skinnable BTW?

I tried it. Not without a bug. Often, after soft reset it looses info for one or a few apps from recent menu. you get a white blank icon for it, with no info. Mainly, apps instaled to memory card.

Default Finally

This is a great program. I hope they fixed the memory leak that was present in v 1.0. Daily soft resets to free up RAM were getting tiresome.

I love the missed call, SMS, and email indicators on the Now screen. Why didn't they add the VM indicator to the Now screen? It defeats the purpose of a Now screen if you have to leave it to check the status of all message types.

giving this app a 2nd chance. v1 was sorely lacking especially for the price they were asking. but i liked the concept. i hope v1.5 is better.

Very unlikely. The application supports a number of features that just aren't present in Windows Mobile 2003.
