Outlook Birthdays

Dear XDA-members,
I own a Hero for some months now, and I am very pleased with it as an old Touch Diamond user.
However, there is one thing that I really miss and can't find anywhere. Not on this great forum, not on Google and not in the Market. What I really miss is a widget to show the upcoming birthdays. I know there are some widgets for that. But they all want Google Contacts. I want a widget that gets the information from my Outlook Contacts.
Hopefully someone here can help me out with pointing on a widget that can do this.
Thanks in advance
I think you are looking for Ebobirthday.

Email notification widget

Hi, has anyone found a good email notification widget? I just want it to display the number of unread emails on my homescreen. I'm using LauncherPro, so can't use the standard HTC one. My email accounts are not gmail.
Cheers

Try pure messenger, displays sms and emails in a widget and had built in notifications.
Hope this helps. If you need a link to it let me know and ill post one on twitter.

[Q] Htc sensce calender

Can someone suggest a good calender to use, I'm not necessarily all about sense, but they have the best calender, the stock widget blows goats, and not to many alternatives???? Any sugestions
Android agenda widget

For main calendar I really like Jorte.
Since it integrates with my google calendar, I can use any widget I want with it, which is good because I don't like Jorte's calendar widget.
For widgets I like both CalWidget and Android Agenda Widget
Smooth Calendar

Pure Grid Calender, it is very similar to sense, except you cant scroll from month to month. You have to click a button, but whatever. Also it cost money and is not a free app. But it also has more widget sizes than HTC Sense one.

[Q] HTC One, Blinkfeed and News, Mail & Friend Stream Widgets

So I'm delighted with my new HTC One, and still learning the features and capabilities.
Blinkfeed provides a feed of multiple sources of news, tweets, posts etc., but I'm finding it easy to miss important things, and I'm seriously missing the HTC Mail, News and Friend Stream widgets I had on my Sensation and before that the Desire.
The HTC Calendar widgets have made it onto the One, but there aren't any HTC ones for the other data.
I've searched Google Play, and only come up with Pure Messenger which works pretty well for Twitter & Facebook, but although it support mail feeds, you can't use the stock HTC Mail app having to replace it with "K9 for Pure" - which I'm not keen on.
Am I missing something? What recommendations do people have to replace my former favourite wdgets - or is there a better way to use Blinkfeed?
All and any (constructive) suggestions welcomed.
Thanks for your feedback.
you could try apw widgets on the play store
They are skinnable and have sense skins, not sure if it's paid or not but there is are widgets for facebook+twitter for instance
