I know I've seen the answers to this floating around, but I'm at work and can't search through all the posts.

Can someone please tell me your favorite wheather/clock app. I would like to have something as close as possible to what I had on my incredible.

Thanks a lot guys...

P.S. 1st day with Droid X after switching from Incredible and loving every second of it. It is much different however so I can't wait to get it all down. Took about a week with Incredible.
 
I've found that Beautiful Widgets eats up a lot of battery and has a really inaccurate weather forecast, so I just use Retro Clock and Date, with either The Weather Channel or Weatherbug widget.


You will find that a lot of peopple will swear by Beautiful Widgets. While Beautiful Widgets looks very nice, I have had the same experience with it using a lot of battery and extremly poor accuracy with the weather. I instead use Fancy widget and weatherbug widget.

I had beautiful widgets and I just got rid of it. It just did not work very well. It was better after the update but it still was not accurate and my geo locations stopped working... I got weather bug and it is taking some getting used to but i really like it. It has a cam on a pole by my town to show actual live weather...

As far as a clock I think I may leave it off... Its kind of redundant to have a clock IMO... When you unlock the phone you see the time... The time is up in the notifications and I wear a watch so why do I need 4 things to tell me the time....

I moved all my widgets and stuff to the other screens and I have Launcher Pro so I use a lot of the icons in the dock... Now my home screen is empty so i can see the picture I have as my wallpaper... Nice and clean looking.
