Love this gadget - please update to address the following issues…

Dual Core - CPU graph shows half of what the CPU % shows.

Battery - Always says 1:49 minutes, regardless of how full the battery is.

Option to show/hide the digital time (so if someone is using another clock gadget, the space for the time is not needed)

Thank you!

cool gadget, though

Would it be possible to add multicore prosessor to it?

Ed, We’re keeping an eye out for a good way to do the bandwidth meter.

Kev, We’ll take a look at the battery meter and see if there’s a problem or if it’s just a glitch.

on the battery meter, it shows how much power i have left and an odd time next to it, i thought it would be the time until my laptop would die but it stayed the same even when i plug my charger in

I enjoy this gadget, thanks for all your hard work.

I only have one request, could you add a LAN bandwidth meter to it?

1. The gadget shows no wireless network on vista laptop, yet I am connected (and have wireless IP address).
2. Add CPU meter and you covered most monitoring.

Micah, It’s something we’re keeping an eye out for. For some reason, Microsoft never encoded the wired IP address into the API. There is probably a way to get it by creating a custom ActiveX object, though that requires that the UAC be turned off.

If we find a good way to get that info in the future you can bet we’ll add it into the gadget.
