Anyone who wants to see what it looks like can check it out here: http://www.htc.com/product/03-product_tytn_II.htm. Basically it is a new home screen that looks better than the default one and makes it easier to access programs.

HTC Home Plug V1.5: http://rapidshare.com/files/78660237/htchomewm56tab.zip
This version is for Windows Mobile 5 devices. You have to unzip the .CAB file and then run it on your phone. After it installs restart the phone.

HTC Home Plug V2.0: http://rapidshare.com/files/78660487/Kaiser.HTC.Home.v2.0.814.722-schen.cab.zip
This one is for Windows Mobile 6 devices. The installation procedure is basicaly the same as the other one.

Enjoy!

Tap the "Select City" screen, then "Menu" (Bottom right corner), "Weather Options", Temperature Scale.

Here's a link to one that has 6 tabs instead of the 5 that normally comes with the TyTN II:

This one adds one more tab, the Media Player tab. If you have the Kaiser, you can set it to run using Windows Media Player or HTC's Audio Manager.

Not sure as all of my devices have been upgraded to WM6. It's worth a try, if it doesn't work, you can easily un-install it.

It should work. It's just a Today Screen Plugin. It will show up in your Start\Settings\Today. In there you can just pick the plugin and it will show up. If it doesn't work (which I doubt will happen), it can be easily uninstalled. Let me know if you have any problems with it.

This plug-in should automatically be built-in for the HTC touch.

It is included on the Touch, but it only has 3 tabs (Home, Weather and Application Launcher). The 6 tab version I provided above adds phone profiles, photo contacts, and media player.

I have been searching for an answer with no luck - I have completed my Today plugin with all my changes, and I would like to create a CAB from it so that I can easily re-install it after a hard reset. Can anyone help me with this? I am familiar with creating CABS using WinCE Cab Manager, but I do not know what (files, folders, Reg entries, etc) needs to go into the cab.

Thank you in advance!
