I use weather to go and it looks fine on my screen. Are you using qvga? If it's the highest resolution on the x50v then that could be the prob.

I tried it and have the same problem, it needs some VGA icons. Or it thinks it is VGA, it looks like I'm running it with SeVGA turned on or something.

So does mine, everything else is BIG and weather to go is small. I am not running in SeVGA, well if anyone comes up with something please let me know.

Just so you know guys if you ever try to uninstall Weather To Go it will kill your activesync on the pocket pc side. No known fix for this either.

I'm not 100% sure if you're correct BUT I did download and then delete this critter and I've had more problems with Activesync than I've ever had before. I finally did a hard reset and a Sprite restore from a backup created prior to this Weather download and now Activesync is back to normal, not great.....which is back to normal.

No, it won't... I uninstalled it from my X50v and then uninstalled it from add/remove programs on the laptop and everything is still working great.

Anyhow, I just ditched WTG and went with WeatherPanel, 10 bucks. But not a bad investment so far.

Just un-installed weather to go - followed directions from company's web site and everything is fine. It would not update with weather updates. On Active sync it was an "unresolved item" and it wouldnt refresh it using the wireless conection either. Anyone have a FREE alternative to Weather to Go that is possibly better?
