    Default Widgets you'd like to see.


    Not apps, but widgets.

    I'd LOVE a weather widget that displays the weather in the icon only, then when you click on it it opens up the forecast like the folders look, with the translucent background and a 5 day forcast or something.

    I'd love a digital clock app. 2 x 1, or 4 x 2 in size (you choose one of the other, id hate if the widget was defaulted to 4 x 2.)

    I just saw your signature and thought I had to add to it "One nation, under Android, with Free Apps and Updates for all!"

    a digital clock, i know theres one in the upper corner but a larger one would be nice, would be cool if it was clear too so it didn't block your wallapaper.

    maybe something about the phones performance like on the vista sidebar, processor speed, memory usage, that would be neat.

    Stock ticker with a graph, RSS feeds, etc...

    maybe a 'buddy list' widget telling you who's online or offline, similar to Trillian, or even a widget that lets you keep a chat always open on the home screen for someone you are constantly chatting with like spouse or girlfriend, etc...

    a search bar, similar to the current one, that searches your gmail account would be money.

    Making the widgets re-sizable would also be a good feature.

    It might be nice to have a widget showing what apps are running. Perhaps it could just cycle through their icons. Different apps seem to do different things when you switch away from them. The task switcher gives me some insight into what's going on in there, but a widget might be neat.
