Comments on: Nexave Keyguard Updated

Henk "Metaview" Jonas continues to release improvements to his most excellent ehnanced Keyguard called Nexave. The app simply replaces the standard Treo or Centro keyguard, with a much nicer looking animated transparent slip that displays the time and various system settings. You can unlock the device by swiping your finger on the screen, or with the usual center click. New features include a batter time and battery display, bluetooth status, support for kMeteo weather forecasts and the usual bug fixes.

Nexave v1.5 is currently available as freeware. Its source is also available under the GPL. It works with all high-res Palm OS 5 devices including the Centro and Treo. You can checkout a video of it in action after the break.

 Too easy to unlock?

Seems to work well - although I wonder if the 'swipe' action is too easy. I seems to require only a short distance, and can be over the whole width of the screen, unlike the small swipe control on the iPhone.

Good work!
