Anything that let's me display my week's appointments, without messing up everything else already on the Today screen would be great. I know there have been good free ones out there (e.g. Todayplugin?) but can't find any of these. But cheap would be good!

My Favourite is tAgenda which is a free download from:

The version you want is 1.1e

Simple but very configurable without using up too much Today screen space.

I use PocketInformant and PIToday, HOWEVER I recently discovered PocketBreeze (http://www.sbsh.net/products/pocketbreeze/) which I'm evaluating right now. Buying new software is always fun not sure how this will fare against PIToday but it's worth a try. I have my Handango $5 customer appreciation coupon to bring the price down, otherwise I'd use my PPCThoughts subscription discount. I think it used to be called something else but I'm not 100% sure.

Get PocketBreeze. I've been using it since March(It was called Calendar Plus Pro then). The support is unbelievable. The program is updated about twice a week with improvements recommended by users. You won't be dissapointed.

PocketBreeze rocks, I haven't been using any other calendar plug-ins since I finally decided to give it a go.

i'm using quick agenda atm:

someone posted the url elsewhere on this forum and i thought i'd give the free 14 day trial a try. it's perfect - simple with no tacky icons taking up screen space, plus you can choose whether to display 1 to 7 days ahead.
its only US$9.95 to purchase a full version.

i use a pretty good free today plug-in called Calendar+ by Mohair Sofa......here's the link:

http://www.freewareppc.com/clock/calendar.shtml

basically it's the exact same as the standard calendar on the today screen, except it allows you to customize it to show multiple days and there's a number of different ways to display the appointment.......simple, but effective........IMO, it's what you seem to be looking for and it's super cheap.....FREE!! :D

I use Calendar+ also. The free version isn't packed full of features, but it was exactly what I was looking for. I can veiw multiple days of schedule on my Today screen, and it links the birthdays in my Contacts with the Calendar. Exactly the simple tool (and cheap one) that I wanted.

Can Pocket Breeze and SPB Pocket Plus both be used together. I like Pocket Breeze for the Today Tasks and Calander features, but SPB Pocket Plus has nive tabs and shortcuts. Anyone running both?

Mortenstein,
It's Stocks & Weather Today.
Juni has a custom skin for it. As usual, it's tops.

Has anybody mentioned Snoopsoft Dashboard? Looks very pretty with some decent skins but does cost some moolah.

I have a key for it but don't use it often. It's been recently updated so if you DO use it, make sure to get the latest version with some nice changes.

Is pocket breeze compatible with Dashboard ?

I believe so. I haven't tried it first-hand but I've seen screenshots of it in the PocketBreeze forums at www.sbsh.net .

Hi babykaye,

PocketBreeze can work with Dashboard, but before putting it "inside" Dashboard you will need to enter PocketBreeze second General settings page and check the "Dashoboard mode" and "Disable updating message" options from the check-boxes list.
