CFootprints for WM 6.5 Today Screen - General Questions and Answers

I've been looking for an HTC Footprints plugin for the WM 6.5 today screen. It doesn't seem to exist. So, I have two questions:
1. Is there an HTC Footprints plugin for CHome/Titanium?
If not...
2. Is anyone willing to make one?
I think it's an excellent app. Very useful for my line of work. Being a stagehand employed by multiple companies, I do setups for everything from arena concerts and sporting events to weddings in obscure places. It's nice to be able to take a picture of a place, name it, and be one or two steps away from having it plotted on Google Maps.

Calendar - Hide tentative or categories from Today Screen?

Hi,
I have a bunch of appointments in a category called South Pacific (my gym) which I have also labeled as tentative. I wish that all these appointments would not show up on my today screen, as it clogs it up and makes it hard to see my actual meetings. I would prefer to just see them in the actual calendar app instead.
Is there some way I can hide either tentative or certain categories from the calendar on the today screen? If not, is there addon software that would do this for me?
By the way, I have a Wizard that I just upgraded to WM6.
Thanks
Hi, I just answered my own question.
If anyone is searching for a similar solution, I googled "today screen hide free appointments" and found TodayAgenda: http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/todayagenda.shtml
Totally free, does exactly what I want (and more, I have only used it for 2 minutes) plus it works with windows mobile 6. Did I mention it is free?

Must have application for VOX

Hi. I have never had any application on my HTC S710, but I found a site called handango and bought three I found very usefull.
This is what I bought:
Chronos alarm clock
SBSH Papyrus and Facade
So when i managed to find three just by looking at handango, there must be many more that I need. So does anyone else have a application that they recomend? Post it here.

You should have bothered looking into the forum. There is already a thread for Vox applications.
Photo Contacts Pro is a must for me
Not because of the photo contacts, but because of the complete profiling options... and by complete I mean COMPLETE
Auto Switch profiles (also different depending on type of meeting)
Fixed time Switches (like night time peace and quiet)
Exceptions (Group exceptions (Family) or single exceptions (Wife/Girlfriend))
"Quick Profiles" like -> Quiet for the next 2 hours (for watching a movie)
etc.
Here is the link:

you should have bought from the developers directly.
handago really rips the developers off with their huge commission.
I didnt know that. Im gona buy directly from the developers next time.

Toggle only private meetings on today screen

Hi folks,
I searched an hour and couldn't find anything: I want to be able to (easily) switch the today screen calendar to:
A) only show private meetings
B) show all meetings
The Nokia N70 does this nicely but I couldn't find any WM software to do the trick. I own a Nike with WM 6.1 btw.
The reason for my request is, that on weekens I would like to be spared with being reminded of meetings next week at the office - improving my work-life-balance ;-)
Anyone know of a solution?
Thanks & Best regards,
p0lDi
This is a wonderful option to be implemented into poutlook. I know you can filter your appointments by categories rather than by status.. so i assume that if you're willing to accept this it would not be that hard to write a quick script which switches between filters.
do you think that would be enough?
not sure - I would assume that the filter is not applied to the today screen, or is it? Also I use categories for other things already... But maybe I just got you wrong ;-)
Well, i assume that to filter to the today screen you'd need a seperate application... but i'm not sure.
The windows today plugin is indeed very basic with only few to no options.
You'll need a separate today plugin like SPB Diary or WebIS Pocket Informant.
I'm sure there are lits more.

Tasks/todo lists on home?

Hi all
I've done a few searches and haven't come up with anything useful - is it possible to have the home page of my Topaz show a "todo" list?
Thanks
Cheers

Then there is Manila Today Page. This program displays today plug-ins in one of the TouchFLO 3D manila pages. Get it here;

Below is a link to AM TasksPlus an alternative for the tasks plug-in provided by the Pocket PC manufacturer. AM TasksPlus shows compact tasks statistics or a detailed list of incomplete tasks grouped by date (Actual, Due today, Overdue and Future tasks). The list can be easily switched between the compact and detailed form.

[Q] Simple questions about WP7, from a simple user

Need help. I'm having problems making/receiving calls on my Tilt 2 and I'm thinking of upgrading. I am having a lot of problems just finding answers to some basic questions about the options available. Being a long time user of Win Mobile, I'm leaning to the WP7. Some questions that I have are:
1. Text entry. Sliding keyboard aside (I'm thinking of the Samsung Focus) is there a transcriber program? I take notes during meetings, etc., and presently either use the keyboard on the Tilt, or a 'Phatware' transcriber program.
2. Backward compatability. Will WM6.5 aps work on the new WP7? Programs like eReader, Laridian Books, Platware, etc.?
3. Is there the ability to import a Contact to a new appointment on the Calendar? Not being able to do this on the Tilt 2 has been a real pain!
4. Is there a stylis?
5. Can you watch a missed TV show from CBS, A&E, or Fox.com?
As I said, these are simple (hopefully, not stupid) questions, and thanks for what ever help or opinions are offered.
1. Microsoft OneNote to take notes. There is no handwritting recognition, just virtual keyboard (for Focus).
2. No.
3. ?
4. No.
5. Several 3rd party apps are either available or in development to watch TV shows and old seasons.
3. The calender provides the option to specify required and optional attendees for an appointment if this is what you mean.
Is the OneNote the only application? I was under the impression that Office was included, which has Word and Excel.
Also, there is some confussion about what I ment with question #3. On my Tilt 2, when creating a new appointment, there is no way to pull a name off of my Contacts list. I have to re-type the name as a new appointment, with no cross link. This has always been a real pain, and something that I can not understand why a business friendly platform can't do. In the original Tilt, you could pull up a Contact, and had a menu function that would allow you to create an new appointment with that contact, but not with the Tilt 2. This is something so simple that even my old Palm M100 would do.
An observation, it certainly appears that all platforms are full of bells and whistles, while leaving the solid old PIM functions out. Maybe I need to go back to my Franklin Planner, and a simple flip phone......
Thanks for the info. From what it sounds like, I won't be going to WP7. I'll have to look at the android/iPhone, to see if one of them will work for me.
Thanks again....

android and iphone will be the same as wp7 in all those aspects.
the only advantage goes to android which can watch those tv shows (android has flash) but wp7 will be getting flash soon too, so it will be able to soon. iphone will never have flash.

Office 2010 mobile with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote is available on all WP7 phones as far as I know...
