NotesToday is a today screen program that is somewhat like the good old-fashioned sticky note, in that you can leave doodles and reminders somewhere you know you'll see them: on your today screen. NotesToday has several drawing options and also allows you to save your notes as 24-bit Windows bitmap files for export.

Full Version Features

• Full transparency support for capable devices
• User configurable backgrounds
• User configurable pen colors
• User configurable pen sizes
• 2 drawing tools: pen and eraser
• As many notes as you want
• A collapsable interface, so you can make more room on your screen or hide sensitive reminders while your device is docked
• An option to save your note as a bitmap anywhere on your device
• Autosave so you won't lose any data if you forget to save before a soft reset
• Fully configurable note height
• Option to require confirmation to clear and delete notes, so you won't accidentally erase your notes

• Fully skinnable interface
• Free upgrades for life

Trial Version Features

The trial version does not allow you to use your own config or skin files, and it limits the note save path to the default directory. It only allows you to create one note, and every time that you ise the clear button, "Trial Version" will be printed on the lower left-hand corner of the note. This text can be erased, but it will reappear each time the note is cleared. There are also a few not-so-subtle reminders that you are using a trial version of the software.

Installation

As of version 1.0.1 NotesToday will enable itself after install, so you no longer have to manually turn it on from the control panel.

If you have a PPC 2000 device, you must disable any previous version of NotesToday before you install an upgrade. To upgrade, simply download the latest trial version and install it over your full version of NotesToday. Because of the method of upgrading, you will need to keep track of your full install in case you ever need to install it from scratch again. Of course, enVision Software support will be more than happy to provide you with the latest full version install if you happen to lose your original.

Supported Devices:
NotesToday is compiled to run on any device with a today screen. That is, if you have a device with PocketPC 2000, 2002, or Windows Mobile 2003, NotesToday should run on your device, and it has been tested on WM 2003, PPC 2002, and PPC 2000 devices.
