avantgo or journal bar

I was going to download journal bar but I have been reading a lot of bad things about it. Can I do pretty much the same thing with avantgo and if so how? Also I would to say Thank You to everyone on this forum, when I frist got my ax I tried calling dell's tech support and that was like hitting a brick wall, but you guys have helped me fix everything that has gone wrong.

You can actually have the same thing you got with Journal bar on avantgo, but avantgo has got its own sets of problems as well. I was using Journal Bar in the past and was very pleased with it most of the time. But what is nice about Journal Bar is that it is on your Today screen as opposed to Avantgo. But Avantgo is free, Journal Bar, not.

I would recommend Journal Bar, the only problem I had with it was one 3 day period it didn't update the weather. This was due to no server updates from the service that doe the weather for Journal Bar possibly the NOAA. Not sure about that though.

Otherwise, Journal Bar is my first PPC software purchase. Just waiting for a good price.

Now that Journal Bar has updated to v2.0 all those problems are gone....I have and love it.

btw...avantgo quit working for me a while ago and hasn't worked since.
