hwyman

Sorry forget everything I just said. I unzipped the file in my comp. then transfered the folder that was unzipped... I finally figured it out Duh! your suppose to transfer the zip file to your axim and run it from there

acsurfer

Well I got it to work.

I took the zipped file I had saved to my desktop and draged to a window I opened using explore in ActiveSync to my CF card. Went to my CF card on my Axim and taped the file and it installed.

now all I have to do figure out how it works.

Thanks everyone for the help/

How'd you get the Winx XP style top bar.

Also, how'd you get weather on your Today Screen?

Thanks!

Here is my todayscreen:

I have lots of freeware on my PPC, just on the today-screen I have:
Wisbar (almost the same as ICbar)
OwnerInfo X
Scott Seligmans Launcher
Calendar +
TaskPlus

You can find more and with links on the link in my signature!

You guy's that use ICbar... have you tried Wisbar? Wich one is best? (I haven't tried ICbar)

I wanted to know that too!

It's probably journal bar from omegaone.com. It's not freeware but costs only $9.95 You can add several bars on your today screen like the weather, news, SE, etc...

P.S. I'm looking for a freeware aletrnative for the weather (which isn't always up to date in the Benelux b.t.w)

I would definitely give these two a try. Thanks!

I use Where is My RAM all the time. I always think there are evil programs holding my RAM hostage .

I like the look of tAgenda better than Calendar+. However, I noticed a significant slow down on everything if I had this plug-in turned on. I went back to Calendar+ because of this. I understand every plug-in would slow down things a bit, but the negative effect on performance was very obvious on tAgenda.I would love to go back to tAgenda if anyone can tell me how to do it without the slow down.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the input! I'm gonna give a few of these a try and see what happens......

tdLaunch - Great customizable application launcher (direct download)



CABinstl - Great app to associate your .cab files to, allows for installation to any path, as well as viewing details about the cab. (direct download)





iDiffCE - CE port of unix dif util, it compares two files and creates a text file with a report on differences (direct download)




(other freeware on SK's page, I only personally use iDiffCE & CabInstl)


Note to mods: this a great thread, can we clean all the support / chat talk and put in another thread and leave this one just for freeware utils?

BattMemTime is new and appears interesting. It moniters your battery and memory, and can tell you how long you have been using the Pocket PC (such as since the last charge). That would be great if you were trying to test your battery. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, though.

Well, so far just about every freeware app listed here I have used at some point, lol! <is a junkie>

Icbar, tAgenda, tdLaunch, BatMemTime, PHM RegEdit,

http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showt...threadid=14228 -- here is a fairly in-depth comparison I did between Icbar, and the new Wisbar Advance, both have pros and cons. I am acutally still using Icbar for the most part, but have both installed.

Here are some more Freeware Apps I use:

• http://www.geocities.com/zavorine/wince/mp3.htm -- NoteM, this is an MP3 voice notes recorder, which encodes DIRECTLY to MP3, which means you can save in high quality and still not exhaust a memory card for hours.
• http://www.ghisler.com/ce.htm -- Total Commander, this is a fairly complex File Explorer program, though, its GUI is a little confusing, but it gets the job done.
• http://www.iliumsoft.com/site/fg/dockware.htm -- Dockware, it plays a slideshow of images you put in a folder, with a clock on top, when docked. Hey, it's better than looking at Activesync!
• http://home.attbi.com/~jonsachs/ -- StopTime, a nice timer program with lots of features, reminders, and more!
