As it is quite popular, many had wondered if it was available for Android phones that operate using 1.5 operating system.\u00a0 Now, thanks to someone&#8217;s good work, we do! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the app,\u00a0 it is the same Android 2.1 News and Weather app which provides both custom news and weather.\u00a0 Within the widget users can choose to see just the weather forecast, just the news, or both the news and the weather.\u00a0 As an HTC Hero owner, I can tell that the 1.5 port is fully functional and works great.
