Hey Richard, The SysBatteryInfo() just returns a percentage back to you...if you want to use the icon like one you see on the Palm display you will have to use a gadget. These gadgets are device specific so try to find it in documentation for the device. They update automatically so you don't have to worry about looping back to update it. You must put the gadget into the form where you want it to be placed. I used a Resource Construtor that came with my SDK which does it visually. Then you must set that object to point to a sort of gadget you get from the makers. I can't remember the specifics right now. I'll keep you posted. You must get it from the maker of your device!
