Looking for a simple today calendar plugin

I'm looking for a today plugin like pocket breeze that shows upcoming tasks and appointments. Pocket breeze made my X51v a bit too slow for my liking, so I'm looking for something simple, fast, and safe to use with VGA/WM2005

Any ideas?

Thanks!

calender + coupled with tasks +? Or you could try the othe simpler app that SBSH has on their website... it might not support WM5 though.

I personally don't mind the bit of lag that Pocket Breeze has.

SuperCalendar is also very good

unfortunately, it's not free. It seems a bit pricey to me in fact, because it is only for the calender. Whilea $16 is not much for an application, it seems high for what you get.

Or you could use PocketBreeze but configure it lightly, you don't need to have all the tabs if you don't use them, and don't add a bunch of custom tabs. Disable any tabs you don't need, avoid highlighting for titles and use the defualt skin and I think you will find it uses much less memory.

Many people who complain about PB's speed have nine or ten tabs loaded, with numerous custom plugins which all require quite a few resources.

Pocket Breeze is awesome. I never thought I would ever need/want this program until after I started using it. Now, I have no idea how I ever lived without it. I'd highly recommend it.

Have you tried the latest verion of PocketBreeze. It is twice as fast as it was before. Very good improvement since teh previous version. Worth checking it out.

I tried the latest version of PB, still seemed a little sluggish, maybe its all psychological though, who knows.

Anyway, I downloaded and installed Tasks+, works fine thanks for the link. It's missing appointments, but I usually make everything a task anyway since I like the check boxes
