Hi

I am new here, i got my x30 med range yesterday and am VERY impressed.

I had a palm m130 before hand an yuk to that ;). It died wednesday with battery problems. I brought the x30 off expansys that evening and it came friday morning and it was charged and ready to go by 7pm :D. Battery life is excellent, had about 2.5 hours total play with it, 1 and half hours on wifi mode (bluetooth turned off) and the rest exploring. Was only down 40%!

So i have just brought a 512Mb Kingston SD Card off ebay to help with the document storage issue (not an issue, but could be) and need some apps to start playing with. Thing is i am broke now, i am a 18yr old student who is now penniless (accept for £5 in coppers)

So what free apps are there out there to fiddle with. I want some utilities here is the list of things i want to do:

Small Battery indicator on the top bar
PDF Reader [needed]
Ebook Reader [not 100% needed as i cant affort ebooks]

And any other widgets (including cool themes!)

I have visualbasic .net and the SDK installed so i might be able to program my own software to do the battery thing, i just want a small pixel battery verticall with 3 bars indicating full (3 bars), 75% (2 bars), 50% (1 bar), 25% (no bar)

Many thanks guys,

- Martyn
