Ok, this is what i want.
I have my default today screen with all my plugins running. At the top(or side) must be tabs (somethings like spdpocketplus) to more than one today screen. Lets say TodayTab1 displays my System monitor and weather, TodayTab2 displays my RSS and Blogs and shedule and TodayTab3 displays my Mail Boxes and Sms's.
But spb pocket plus doesnt support this tipe of tabs or does it? Is it possible?

I use wisbar advance desktop that allows multiple desktops and speeds up the device by putting only one or two plugins on each desktop. Also allows text tabs to link you to each of the other desktops.

Some days ago I was looking for a good today calendar plugin and got some answers from the forum, I'm still trying them but in a trial I found that Pocket Breeze (from SBSH) in it current version can actually do what you want.
This software allows to have TABS with diferent info in each one...calendar, task, notes, messages... and also, you can add your customs tabs including on it any today pluginn you have installed; that way yo can have a TAB with the weather info, or any other app you can view on the normal today screen; even the spb pocketplus you have can be view in one of the TABS if you want...
You can download a trial version of the software before buy it in order to see if that is what you are looking for...so far now I have not have any problem of performance using it..
Best regards;

It seems SK Today Commander (http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?tc/m_feat.html) is exactly what you want. :)

How quick is the actual switching?
Instant, near instant, roughly X seconds?
Thanks guys.

oh sorry.. from today1 to today2 about 7-10seconds. Backwords about 2seconds.. :(
Maybe there is a regkey that can increase the memory use for this app or something to make it switch more instant like.. ??!!

That may depends what you used in today1 and today2. Mind listing the stuff you had in today1 and today2? 7-10 seconds are really slow. And, does it happen all the time while switching from today1 to today2 or does it have a cache thing that, once you did it, the next switching becomes faster.

Ok. Oh, there doesnt seem to be caching..
On today1 I have the following:
1) Date (Default one)
2) Calender (Default one)
3) Messaging (Default one)
4) IP Dashboard
5) Phone Dashboard
6) Resco Today Plugin
7) Device lock (Default one)
On today2 I have:
1) Wireless (That registry hack to display the connections status)
2) WeatherPanel ( I disabled it to test, but its still slow!)
3) Device Lock (Default one)

Well, can anyone else confirm that SK Today Commander slows down your TyTn when having 2 or more today screens? :(

Yes, I does seem to be slow in switching. I installed the trial version last night and only have 2 screens. I am using the buttons in the task bar and when activating a change I will see Help or contacts flash on the screen before it actually switches Today Screens. Not sure if I want to pay the money or not for the app.

Thanx @ samsonib for also testing.. Its a bummer, that app looks and works very nice, just the slowness thats the downside!

ok, i just installed JGUI MoreTodays! It also works, but its the same as the other one.. Its also damn slooowwww.. Dont think this device was made to handle more than one today screen.. Looks like there is no app out there that can do an instant switch to a second today screen.. :(

I downloaded MoreTodays! and it seems to be a little faster than the Today Commander and I don't get the flashes of the help screens, etc. I guess I will play with it for the 5 free days before the trial ends before I go back to one crowded screen. Thanks.

Well I thought I had 5 days to use MoreTodays!, but this morning a message popped up saying that the trial had expired and I could only use 1 screen until I removed trial and reloaded the full version. Anyone else have this issue?
