What is the reg tweak to add the battery indicator on the taskbar? I know the one that replaces the clock with the battery, but I would like both icons to appear.

Thanks.

I know that SPB pocket plus 4 can do this, and there are a bunch of gradiented battery bars.

That said, i'm sure that there is a reg key but I do not know it.

thanks, that's exactly what i was looking for.. before you showed me this program i put the file "powertray.exe" in \windows\startup so i could get the icon on my taskbar; now that i have this battery program i want to delete the file. I'm not allowed to however because it is "still running.."

I assume the only way to delete a file from \windows\startup is to boot in safe mode. is there a key stroke configuration that you can do after a soft-reset? or do you have to install software? if it is the latter, is there freeware that can perform this task.. stable.

thanks.

an alternative is WKtask, also free, which includes the topbar batterygauge and the tabbed task manager, plus many other extras.

not as colorful as the Molski, but WKtask covers 100% of the top bar versus Molski's 90%

EDIT:
Batti 2.4 (http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/batti.shtml)was just released on 9/13/08. It's the best I've found.
