WisBar What? Where? Why?

[JSVH]

Iv heard about this WisBar thing. Where can I find it? Is it free? Does it work with PPC 2002? Do reminders work on it (e.g. Appointment in 5 mins., Do you want to recive this beam, MSN: Bob says: "Hi!")?<br><br>PS: I hit the Reset Form button trying to post, csn you do something about that? for thoughs of us who post while half awake.

[Matt Keys]

what do you want, a "are you really sure you want to do that" button, followed by a "I think your just half awake, hit yes if I am right" pop up window?

Here:<br><br><br>It is free, I don't know (probably), and no.<br>It is the sort of thing that a Pocket PC is useless without.

I dont use it. I find my PPC vey usefull. Isnt it just a wanna be start menu with skin or something?

[Diego Cueva]

Nope, it can also close apps, switch tasks, adjust the sound volume, etc.<br>

[Matt Keys]

I use it, and would never go back. Excellent app, does everything I would want it to and I havent noticed any performance hit.

[Jaybot]

it is pretty worthless on the ppc 2k2, although you can skin it.

[JSVH]

Sounds good, but if the reminders dont work how would you be notified of an alarm or other thing you would normally get via the reminder?

[JSVH]

What do you mean my "worthless"? I would mainly want it as a skin, I dont have to have the apps for it. Do the Start and close buttons still work on PPC 2k2?<br>

[esw]

What I said about PPC being worthless was sort of a dumb thing to say, but I just think WisBar is a cool program.

So it's basically the same thing as the Qmenu for those who have a Compaq and skinnable with a bit more customization.   <br><br>Qmenu has:<br><br>Close active task<br>Close all tasks<br>______________________<br>A list of running tasks<br>______________________<br>Contrast<br>File Explorer<br>Power settings/status<br>Volume setttings<br>______________________<br>QUtilities (Configure Qmenu, backup, self test)<br>Backlight settings/activation/reverse<br>______________________<br>Exit<br><br>Some of you probably know this, but it sounds just about identical to wisbar (plus, if it's mono like mine who needs skins )

[Luciano U. Werner]

WISbar is better.

[Paul]

luciano, you're absolutely right.

[RavenRay]

Yes, I would agree.  WisBar is better and very helpful.  I don't know that I'll do without it.
