Yes I tried stockthis too, but you're right it's not flexible at all... And it would be nice to have quotes right at hand on a widget... Anyway, let's wait!!!

With desktop command execution widget - http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...mand+execution - and some basic knowledge of unix shell scripts/wget, you can create your own stocks widget

Hello All,
Finally, I managed to get the workaround beside using "stockthis". Thanks to everyone here for their information. Here I would like to share / give back to the community and hope someone can develop a better stocks apps or something better. For me checking stocks is very important to me which I can do it easily on other platform like WinMo to check my stock prices :>
Here is what i do for those who really want to check their stock constantly.
Here is What you need:
=====================
1) quote -- command-line stock quote display
Thanks to the AUTHOR
Jeremy Elson
The current version of this software is available at
http://www.circlemud.org/~jelson/software/quote
2) Get and install the lynx apps (text base browser, i guess)
sudo gainroot
apt-get install lynx
3) The "desktop command execution widget" (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...mand+execution)
To test it:
EXAMPLES
Use of quote is very simple:
% quote csco ibm dell nt.to '^ixic'
CSCO: 55.19 -2.00 (-3.50%) on vol of 72.6M @4:00PM
IBM: 119.12 -3.88 (-3.15%) on vol of 6.2M @4:52PM
DELL: 33.62 -0.69 (-2.00%) on vol of 35.2M @4:00PM
NT.TO: 95.50 -4.10 (-4.12%) on vol of 6.3M @4:58PM
^IXIC: 3689.10 -52.12 (-1.39%) @5:16PM
You can also try to retrieve real-time quotes (if works):
% quote -r csco dell
CSCO: 55.62 -1.56 (-2.73%) @7:58 PM
DELL: 33.88 -0.44 (-1.28%) @7:39 PM
4) then put this command into desktop command execution widget....blingggggg you get your stock quotes
Works great for me....hope we will have our great developer here will work/develop a better stocks apps or something better like this.
Enjoy!!!
