September 7, 2006. I mentioned the other day that I was working on a new Order Status widget for Amazon. Well, it occurred to me that it shared most of the same code with my Apple Order Status widget, and hey, why clutter up the widget bar when I can have one multi-purpose widget?

August 24, 2006. If you’re one of the many people wondering why my Apple Order Status widget is no longer working, things are not looking so good. Apple made a change to their store recently that broke the widget. Normally it’s a pretty quick fix, but this time I’m unable to get it working again.
