I have created a new category for iPaq and Pocket PC related postings, I am hoping to post here bits about all the software I use on my iPaq mostly as a place where I can come back and find things that I loose but also in the hope that someone will be finding it interesting.
A shortcoming in the Pocket PC 2003 OS in my view is the lack of a simple to locate battery monitor, the battery monitor only appears when the iPaq is nearly flat otherwise it is buried deep in the settings menus. I found a good freeware system tray battery meter at Birdsoft and it works really well so far, below a screenshot of it in action. It does not provide much functionality but clicking on the icon allows you to click on short cuts to the power management and the battery management of the iPaq, not much else you would want from such a tool.
