We reported the other day that HTC had sent a C&D letter to the maker of Beautiful Widgets, LevelUp, in effect killing off the $1.50 app. The app was designed to give your Android phone the similar look of HTC's home page on your device. You know what we're talking about, cellphone fans. You've gazed at pix of the HTC home screen with the large flip clock and the weather animation and thought how cool it looks. But the C&D letter was like stabbing a knife through the heart of the third party download. HTC is getting into the business itself by offering a package of four widgets that will work only on the Hero and the DROID ERIS. The widgets are Today in History, Dice, Tip Calculator and Battery. Not the most exciting foursome, but hey, you can't beat the cost (Free) and you can stick it to those friends of yours who have been pushing their DROID in your face.
