If you have follow my frontpage posting so far, you have probably noticed that from time to time I hunt for free applications for the PPC. Today I found a very neat combo calculator/notepad called CalcNote. Following is what the developer has to say about his product.
CalcNote is developed with attention to peculiarities of Pocket PC. It doesn't cover the whole working area of the screen and can be easily moved to any place. You can change the size of CalcNote with one click. It doesn't capture the keyboard focus from other programs. CalcNote is just like your desk, where along with business documents there is always a sheet of paper, pen and calculator enabling you to write down the information and make the necessary calculations without bothering yourself with technical features of your Pocket PC.
Typical cases of CalcNote usage. Sometimes you need to write down quickly some phone number or address. Your interlocutor may not like waiting for you to run you Pocket PC, open Contact application, make new entry and enter phone number in the appropriate field. It's much easier to click the CalcNote icon, press the New button to create a new note and write down the number or draw an approach plan manually. CalcNote will automatically name the note using the first line of the text and save the note on the PC. Thus, you can create notes quickly without being afraid that some of them will be missed. In your spare time, you can rewrite your notes into the appropriate program, classify the information and delete unneeded note from your computer.
hopefully a note pad program that will be as handy as the one in my long lost palmpilot.
a simple memopad that works.......
that's what i miss the most.
Not too bad but I wish there was an option to make it full screen if you needed it.Thanks for posting.
Note:
I just noticed you can make the screen bigger by dragging the lower right corner.Now it is a great ap. :approve:
This is perfect! I used to have an app like this on my Palm called SnapCalc, it did exactly the same thing. I have been looking for something comparable for PPC for a long time. Thank you!

Thank you and the FREE part is a real bonus too.

Uh, oh, noticed something wierd about this app. I have ilauncher, and if I move this calculator around on my today screen, my ilauncher icons show that my program memory drops by about 1MB with every single move! It doesn't seem to do this in any other applications, though, just the today screen. I think it has something to do with the way it integrates with ilauncher.

For what it's worth, I don't have ilauncher and I'm not seeing this memory drain.
