I've been searching the net with little luck on a clear and not so ugly way to see the memory and battery life left on my Today screen. Only thing I've really found is wisbar but it is fugly so I come to you for help. I have an Ipaq 3765 with a PCMCIA Sleeve+. What I'm looking for is kinda like this pix: http://www.pocketthemes.com/tempthemes/roland_vb/PT-4cars_rv.jpg

TIA!

Wisbar fugly? Perhaps you haven't seen Juni's (and others) great themes for WA.

I use syswatch v1.0. It is a very clean looking set-up, showing you battery, internal memory remaining, and memory card memory remaining and or analogue clock. You can find it at www.all-locations.com
It's completely free!

Enter the site - click products - click pocket pc - click syswatch (on the far right) - and click download.
Hopefully that will work for you. It's pretty simple and impressive. :D

There's always Scarybearsoftware's PowerLevel III.

I really like TodayPlus. it's got a bit of a learning curve, but it's still in beta and gets better all the time.

it puts a power level bar right on the today screen, along with a bunch of other info. I probably don't use half of the features, but I do use it to show RSS streams and weather info, as well as system info.

Today Plus would not be the best of choices... it is in beta state and has an expiry date attached to it.

Another program you may want to look at would be Todays Info... another free program... available at PPCFreewares...
