    Default Windows Mobile Like Today Screen for Palm OS?

    I'm switching from a WM6 device to the Treo 755P and I already know what my biggest gripe will be when the 755P arrives, no "Today Screen"...

    I've googled around a bit for a 3rd party app that would do this and haven't found anything that REALLY simulates the Windows Mobile today screen on the Palm OS.

    I HIGHLY depend on my today screen for:

    Date/Time
    New Email (and number of new emails etc) Notifications
    Calendar
    & I like but do not really need the task list

    Also, the ability to LAUNCH these programs straight from the today screen by scrolling to them and selecting them or just tapping on them is a massive plus.

    So, is there ANYTHING out there free or for a reasonable fee that will do this that actually works and won't cause other weird issues (long ago had a BB and used a 3rd party one with that that was really buggy).

    ...?

    Check out Datebk6. It's one of the most solid and well-supported Palm OS apps, and does everything that you asked for.

    I have the opposite problem. Am used to my Palms (most recently the Palm Zire 71) and I can't figure out how to make the Today screen on my new Treo 750wx GO AWAY!

    As the Kreth mentioned, Datebook6 and 2Day. I frankly like the Palm OS today screens with Datebook6 & 2Day better. It works though.
