3rd Party App(s) w/100% Reliable Live Tile

What are they? I've installed many where the tile works for awhile then stops, is inconsistent, info is not timely, etc. Glance-and-go is more like glance-and...WTF!

If I'm going to take a battery hit, it may as well be for something reliable.

First question, are you updated to Mango. If so, Live Tiles are working fine.......but, occasionally Microsoft's or the developers servers will have a glitch which will delay updates for a period of time. Fox News, USA Today and Weather Channel all update regularly. Sure, occasionally a tile will be blank for an hour, but then things start working again. Sports Scores and Pro Sports Scores are two other apps that update game scores really well.

You're right it takes some battery power, but I haven't noticed anything excessive with battery usage. I can easily go through a day with occasional usage.
