Weather app that shows current conditions/temperature on icon?
I was using BerryWeather on my BB before my VWZ iPhone arrived.
MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.6.6), Final Cut Studio 3, Aperture 3, iPhone4

My understanding (and this is not to be taken as fact) is that its a data usage / update frequency issue. The calendar app updates once a day and does not require internet access to do so, so it uses very little battery life to make the change. Updating the weather app would require constant monitoring of a weather service and constant updating of the information, which would drain the battery severly.
Funny you ask. I just read an article that spoke of an app that had a workaround to this problem. It uses the badge indicator like the one on mail to push the current temperature to your homescreen. Opening the app gives more information such as if it is raining, sunny, anything you'd expect from a weather app. $0.99 in the app store for Fahrenheit and there is another separate one for Celcius.

Hi,
Try the Google Extension (providing you are using chrome of course) it is quite a cool little app.
