Where might I find Qmenu? I have searched the forum and googled the world with no luck other than references to it being included in some PDA's
Thanks

Great app! I still use Wktask for the task bar like a windows pc though. The new version of Wktask has an option that takes the place of the vista hide battery gauge or whatever it is called.

yeah but wktask takes up too much screen real estate for some of us. And now it does that vista hide bar thing too... ugh, stuff that takes over the screen makes me angry. I HATE CLUTTER!
:)
Personally can't stand wktask.
What's nice about Qmenu, besides the minimal memory footprint, is that you can bring up the "task manager" when needed, instead of it being up on top all the time like wktask, or only on the home screen like X-button. Just press the start button (or windows key on an equipped device).
Its really easy to end tasks too (scroll to the task, press the dpad to the right). So when closing multiple apps at once, this is awesome (scroll, right, scroll, right, skip one you want open, scroll, right...). And the best part is that ITS NOT THERE WHEN U DON'T WANT/NEED IT!
The only thing is that sometimes I like my old start menu programs because I use ftouchflo to scroll through all the icons.
so, I use qmenu mostly as a task manager mapped to the windows key, and have it set now that when I press the start menu on screen, the old start menu appears. This seems like the best combo for me.
Also, it has a battery meter that sits on the home screen in the top right corner. When you click it, it will also tell you how much memory is free. You can configure this to show battery in graphic (verbose), percent, with the free memory amount, or just show free memory. Makes managing the device a cinch, and, as I said before, all without hostilely taking over your interface!

This is a great app. I was thinking of installing SPB Pocket Plus only to use the close "ok" button feature but with Qmenu extremely less memory consumption, I saved so much space that spb pocket plus would have taken. Excellent app :D

I don't find it as clutter...but I guess everyone has their opinions. I feel lost without WkTask as I like to see in a glance what I have open and the same goes for the battery. I can't see how the battery meter gets in the way.
