Thank you.
SBSH software is responsible for the content of my today screen. The main today screen plugin app I am using is
PocketBreeze which is very customizable and skinnable. PocketBreeze gives me custom tabs that allow me to run other today screen plugins within it. The weather app is
PocketWeather which is also very customizable. There is also
iLauncher which gives me my program icons on the today screen that is also very customizable and skinnable. All 3 of the programs are some of the best software available for the Windows Mobile OS in my opinion. They have a great community
Support Forum and some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. The developer of these 3 products is Amit Regev and is one of the most stand up fellows I have ever had the pleasure to know.
The RSS feeds come from a program called
PocketRSS which I also run as a plugin from within PocketBreeze. PocketRSS can also run as a stand alone app. PocketRSS integrates very well with PocketBreeze and is my favorite news reader.
The last plugin I use is also run from within PocketBreeze. It is
Skype for Pocket PC. I use it regularly and it works very well on my Axim x51v. My wife calls her father in Shanghai, China for 2.2 cents a minute. We have Skype on our computers also, but she prefers to use my Axim because it sounds good and is mobile.
Just to make clear....All of the plugins I run from within PocketBreeze can also be run as stand alone today screen plugins without PocketBreeze. I just like to use the custom tabs function in PocketBreeze to save valuable space on my today screen. You start using enough today screen plugins and it can quickly become very crowded and busy.
Well, I guess that is about it. I hope this has answered your questions. If I can be of further assistance, please let me know. In the mean time, you are invited to visit
