Good battery meter application?
Can someone recommend a good battery meter app? Any suggestions (even if the battery meter comed bundled with other apps as a package) are appreciated. TIA!

You could try SPB Pocket Plu (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com)

Best of luck!

It depends on the type of unit that you have. Some program works better with an X30 than X50.

I like the little battery meter that is an option with Magic Button, along with Magic Button's other features...and the price is right...FREE!

Thanks for the v quick responses y'all. I'm using the X50v (which reminds me, I need to update my PDA column on my profile).

Depends on what you want. I use spbPocket Plus which includes a battery meter you can put across the top bar of the display in all apps, but I also use Uptime because it will generate a report of battery usage along with which apps were run and for how long.

BatMemTime is a nice one, and free! It also allows you to customize the colors to match whatever theme you are using.

I think I may switch to SPB Pocket Plus. Magic Button doesn't seem to display the battery meter on my screen. OR, I'm doing something wrong.

There's an option in Magic button that you have to turn on. I don't remember exactly as switched from using magic button to SPB Pocket Plus. BTW, It's worth the switch!

Yeah... thanks CXRGSR. However, the $20 is a little pricey for my blood at the moment. Already spent quite a bit on getting other apps.
