Xtndr is an extension for your Palm Treo smartphone. It features the innovative Launch Pad that now allows you to assign even more applications to the application buttons on your device than before. You hardly ever have to use the application launcher again! It also features a customizable info pop-up that can show you all kinds of information, including but not limited to the current time, the phone and bluetooth statuses, and the number of unread SMS and email messages. This handy info pop-up can also replace the system default Keyguard. But Xtndr doesn't stop there. In addition to all this it lets you customize the alternative character selection system that is provided when you press the Alt key.

Key Features:

• Info Pop-Up - All the information at the touch of a button.
• Launch Pad - Launch anything-anywhere-anytime
• Special Characters - Don't let your Treo dictate the way you're writing
• And much more...

So in short, Xtndr gives you a powerful replacement for the system keyguard that can display almost any information you'll ever need to check, a flexible and fast way of launching any number of applications you can ever think of, simply the most powerful and customizable special and accented character input system ever seen on Palm OS and some more goodies, too!

Version 1.6 04/02/2008

• NEW: Prepared Xtndr to allow for future versions to be installed via HotSync without disabling Xtndr first. To install Xtndr 1.6, however, you'll still have to disable any installed older versions.
• NEW: Xtndr now sets the hsAttrKeyguardDialogOn attribute so other applications can tell whether the info popup is currently showing as the keyguard dialog.
• NEW: You can now configure the info popup to open on a short press of the side key.
• NEW: Added a slide to unlock feature similar to that of a popular phone made by a fruitily named company. If you have disabled all but the first two info widgets in Info Popup preferences, the slider will always be visible in the keyguard info popup. Otherwise, it will show when you in the lower forth area of the popup.
