Default Calender Items On Home Page?
I just got a BB for the first time. My last phone was a Samsung Blackjack. I didn't really like it, but one feature I loved was that upcoming calender items showed up on the home screen. As well as other info, like how many messages were waiting and number of missed calls.

The BB Curve 8900 has lots of little icons that help with most of this, but what I'd like to know is, is there is anyway to show upcoming calender items on the home screen, because if I acknowledge a reminder and don't check my calender again, I tend to forget about events.

Thanks to anyone who can take the time to help me out!!

(also how do I change the ring tones?)

You can use a today theme. Just make sure all you appt's added in are part of the default calendar.

There should be OTA links in the forums threads to download directly to your phone...

Yeah... if you see the underline text that says OTA.... click on that with your BB browser on your phone...

It will ask for permission to install.

I'm trying to put this on my 8900 as well. It still isn't showing my upcoming appointments on here. Am I doing something wrong?

Did you change themes after you installed it to your BB?
