What others say
"Great Job!"
"Definitely the best thing to happen to my Today Screen in a long time. Better than other Weather Plug-Ins I had used before (Weather Today)...because it offers so much more. And it's a much friendlier and cleaner interface as well. I highly recommend this program. It's well worth the modest price. I used it once and purcased it right away."
Nick Cornaglia
"Journal Bar brings our scattered over the world closer"
"The trial had me having to purchase this product. Weather, News from around the world or around the corner, its all here. The new weather pages even let me see whats ahead as far as rain or snow would be concerend. Journal Bar and the expansion pack is a must have for anyone that owns a Pocket PC. Just a must have."
A reviewer from Greer, SC Greenville
"One of the top 3 all-time best products!"
"I have been using this product for over 2 years now. I have migrated it from one PPC to another and it just always performs as expected. Same thing with updates, which by the way are free!. A convenient message appears in the bar when an update is available. I just added the Expansion Pack for the RSS feature. How cool! I LOVE THIS SOFTWARE! I have purchased A LOT of software for my devices over the years, and this one is definately one of the top 3 all-time best products I've ever owned."
