I would like to give it a try but the site wants you to join a forum. I’m now getting swamped with the amount of forum passwords I need to keep track of.

But for some reason it does not work on my MDA. Would you give me some instructions on how to start the program? Thanks!

Well about the registration this is for keeping track how many people that have downloaded the program if i would distribute this they could not keep track about this. And for passwords keeping track off just use the same password everywhere or just download a simple password tracker for your PDA or Desktop pc.

About the installation:

There are a few pointers you need to keep in mind. If you have installed Pocketbreeze you need to enable the tab in the PocketBreeze Tab Configuration. It would problly tell you that the tab is active on your normal Today screen and if you want to disable it. Just say yes.

Here are other pointers:

1. Extract the downloaded zip file.
2. Connect your device to ActiveSync.
3. Run the exe and follow the installation.
4. If you get a security warning on your device say yes.
I installed it to the device itself not a Storage Card
5. So install it on your device.

Then you normaly have a new Today item on your screen (except if your using pocketbreeze (see above).

I dunno about other today plugins that "hide" the clock.

Hope this helps.

Font too small

I don't know if there's a way to change it, but the font used to display the time and city names is too small to read. The text in all other Today screen items are fine.

I found this thread in the SBSH Clock forums. There were several people who said that enabling ClearType made the text much more readable, and I'll be darned if they weren't correct.

I still think the font is too small, but at least it's readable now and there may be a font size option in the final version or it may be changeable using skins.
