Better widgets...

[Angelworks]

I switched from a Nexus One to a Droid X - mainly because of the better network coverage over AT&T (and yes its light years better - for instance my phone works in my office now).

One of the widgets I really miss from my Nexus One is the weather/news widget. Is there any way to install this?

The weather widget that Motorola gives you kinda sucks - it doesn't update location automatically (not even an option to do so), and I kinda like the stock one with the news reader in the same widget. I miss the views it gives you over the Motorola one.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Overall btw I love the phone over the N1 - the touch screen for instance is light years better. I do miss 2.2 though.

The nexus one news/weather app (genie app) has been ported and can be downloaded here...

Any idea I just found the transparent one after I dl and try to open I get the parsing error message. I've used astro to try but still nothing

There is a weather channel app that gives you widgets once you run it
