    Support for 24-hour time format would be really nice.

    Any way to merge all the calendars on my gCal into one feed, for the purposes of this widget?

    Does it work with Google Apps accounts? I have just loaded it up and it says that it cannot load calendar.

    I saw your comment about all-day events now working, but I just got a new Chumby and JUST installed this widget, and my all-day event on Friday is showing up at 11pm-12am Thursday.

    I also need the capability to combine several GoogleCalenders into one Chumby widget ordered by event time. We have one calendar for each member of the family plus a couple of extras for a total of seven. This would be a great new feature! Thanks.

    Is there a widget that combines some Google Calendars? I have seven Calendars for different Teams I work in it would be nice to have a widget that shows a combined view like the google calendar website

    danspam, thanks for the comment. All Day events should display properly now.

    This does not display all day events too well. I have an all day event on a thursday and it says it is on a friday. Great idea for a widget but needs some work.

    The widget does not seem to support international characters (for example Danish æøå/ÆØÅ).

    The widget has been updated. It no longer displays events from previous days, and generally works a lot better. You can now view your calendar in event or day view, and we hope the widget is easier to use now. We weren't able to get all of the requests addressed in this version, but will be making further enhancements to the widget.

    Is there any plans for an update with this widget. It seems like it would be great if it worked well. It doesn't show my complete calendar, mostly birthdays that don't happen for a few months and since they are set up as all day events it doesn't even tell you the date.

    great idea for a widget but sloppy execution. no date on whole-day events. no sorting. i get the comment on adding the query parameters, but it's not very user-friendly to have to manually search and add that in.

    i made comments earlier based on the standart http address you get from google calendar. well. it turns out you can actually sort out the calendar events as well as show only future events and/or limit the number of events to display by appending the query options for google calendar retrieval. google the following 'google calendar api query parameter' and you will get the list of all that you can append to your calendar. it now works just fine for me

    also, whole-day events are not displayed with their respective date. instead, unknown is used.

    this widget displays the events in the same order those are received in the XML file from google calendar, which puts first events that have been recently modified/entered. events from google must be sorted and start with imminent then future ones. however, this widget does not soft them. which renders it useless for at-glance viewing busy calendar.

    Widget is very promising. Really hoping for updates in the future. Current version has problems with re-occurring events.

    Worst widget I have seen. Absolutely worthless. Shows events out of order, and does not even show the time and date of the event.

    Wish this would start with a monthly view, like the Google Calendar widget.

    Could be very helpful if you could set date parameters for displaying

    Same problem as above. It's showing appointments that are all in the past.

    Got it to work (who knows why it was freezing before). The problem is that it seems to show events (past, present and future) in no particular order.

    Seems to freeze my Chumby. When I go from viewing to the control panel, none of the on screen buttons work and I have to cycle power. I have one of the new Chumbys
