Been thinking of getting it - thing is 2.1 already includes a news and weather widget. Other than appearance, what, if anything, are the advantages of Beautiful widgets vs the stock widgets?

What do they do when you "click" on them? I do like the new news/weather widget and what it does. I might consider Beautiful Widgets if its that much better in terms of performance, appearance, and flexibility.

Thanks.

skins..I personally like the animation BW provides when you select the weather, plus the additional widgets it gives you (wifi, bluetooth, silent, vibe, gps, brightness, ect...)

They are more configurable than the standard 2.1 widget. They also look better. For 1.49 Euro it's pretty darn cheap - what the heck.

I was using Beautiful Widgets for a while, and the widget really works great. However, I just want the weather - I don't want the clock at all. Unless I was missing something, it never had an option to have just the weather.

Now I'm using Weatherbug Elite.

I figured I'd give it a shot... wish there was nice battery widget in with that collection - I like the home screen app but the rest.. meh.

The PowerBar that comes stock already does a lot of what Beautiful Widgets does.
