I do not have the impression and i really want to get one and have been watchin many reviews on it. But in most of the videos I see a google icon in the widget bar along with a yahoo one. I was just wonderin what they did and if there is a widget that allows you to download more.

Thanks

Well on mine, I only have the Yahoo! oneSearch widget. And what it is, is like the quick search you have on like Internet Explorer. You just type in for example 'samsung' and it goes online and shows you websites or images related to 'samsung.' I'm sure the Google widget isn't any different, besides the fact it uses the Google search engine obviously.

I'm sure the answer is "no," but is there any way to get a Google widget instead of (or in addition to) the Yahoo one?

Anyone tried to load a WGT file off of the web?    On the Impression there is a user-area 'Widget' directory.    I've dropped stuff in there using TKFile, but they are not recognized (as Java apps are when placed in the right directory).   I'm guessing the installer wouldn't recognize the WGT directory structure (wanting it to be a regular app since its a jar)?

I looked into installing widgets on the phone. They actually have to be added to the firmware and then the firmware flashed on the phone. Other non branded samsung phones have been able to do this but it is out of our range for now.

Here is one link I found for the pixon phone I believe.
