Where?

There was a press release on their site about 3 days ago.

There's a sign up link here, where they will let you know once it has been released

Goal.com does it for me

Pretty good app i found. And i used their site anyway too at work for years!

Any decent apps with a full screen widget? I used to use one page for my messages, but since moving to handcent I have a spare page and don't really want to fill it with apps that I rarely use.

hi

i'm wondering if i have an issue with the switch pro widget and the extended controls widget?
i'd like to use one or the other but i find that when i disable the data connection (apn?) and i then press and hold the power button to check, it still tells me the data connection is enabled even though the H or G logo disappears from the status bar.

As i'm not 100% convinced that either widget is working properly i just use the power button shortcut to enable/disable the data connection when needed. all the other buttons i use on the widgets work fine (wi-fi, gps, vibrate, auto sync and brightness)

in case it makes a difference my phone is an HTC Wildfire running android 2.1 and it's not rooted.

thanks in advance.

just reading some of the comments for extended controls and it seems the apn switch isn't working in the latest release.

I don't know of one but I'm sure Google will make one soon as they just bought the flight data company for like 700 Million.

Deep · 6 Jul 2010 at 23:52

Ah fair enough, going to Gatwick to pick a friend up now. Just thought it'd have been an interesting application.

Here is to the future!
