By any chance is anyone aware of a SIMPLE speed dial application (with large buttons) that normally would reside on the today screen. Something along the lines of a picture speed dial or something that takes the name of the contact and makes it large (i.e. finger friendly) and just lists like 5-10 contacts. It has to be an application that normally is a today screen plugin. My goal here is to have a tab within pocket plus that contains this today plugin.

Thanks for the help guys. I've been searching, but have yet to find anything short of a total today screen replacement (which I DON'T want).

Plus has a photo contact option within it. You can set up a tab just for your photo contacts and put whatever photo contacts that you want in it. You can spread them out for whatever spacing you want. That is what I have in one of PP tabs.

By any chance can you point in the right direction to this application (Quick Dialer)? I didn't a forum search, but can't find it readily.

Thank you.

Anyone else know where I can get this "Quick Dialer" the previous poster alluded to?

Thank you.

I use SPB mobile shell and their today plug-in. Pending how you set it up you can have two dial tabs with 5 contacts each. Finger friendly and practical.

How about this I attached a pic of the tab with 15 tabs for picture tabs for easy finger access.

mcmexican,

That's nice. Not quite what I'm looking for though.

The closest thing I've found to what I'm looking for is actually the Treo 700W speed dial cab (which allows you to select Pictures, or text buttons). I like to use the text buttons (but wish they were a bit bigger), but I wish when I hit the button it asked me if I wanted to send an SMS or call a different number.

Anyone else have any suggestions? Can anyone point me to the app the birdheh mentioned (Quick Dialer)?

Thank you.

By the way... here's a picture of my current speed dial/weather tab illustrating what I like:
