The new release is great, but my calendar is still white and not black like in the pics, I have checked the 'use black graphs options' and re-installed it, anything else?

you need to select the iStat blaqua option in the time & date pane in system preferences. |

Is there a battery status monitor somewhere that my woeful eyes can't see, or has that yet to be implemented??
Sorry if that's been covered in the past. This is my first go at using Menus. I've been an iStat pro user up until now...
