Today’s homebrew app is a system utility for the Palm Pre that brings a number of oft-used system functions together in one place. Quick System Tasks can be run in two modes, a card mode and a dashboard mode. In card mode (pictured bottom, left), it provides convenient toggle switches for Data, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth and Airplane modes. In dashboard mode (bottom, right), the same functionality sits at the bottom of the screen for one tap operation. It is simple and free – how much better can you get?
