May be way more than you're looking for, but check out
Executive Assistant (Appventive) . In addition to the day's events, you get missed calls, gmail, and SMS, and optionally, Facebook, Twitter, & RSS. Select your widget size from 4x1 all the way up to 4x4. Or, optionally use the app as a lock screen replacement or welcome screen. Available both as a free, ad-supported version and a paid, ad-free version. Just search for Appventive in the Market or scan the QR code in my profile.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
All the best,
Steve
