Ovi Store and the closing of Widsets

So I’m not sure about my readers, however I am a little upset that Widsets closed down.
I’ve been using Widsets since its early days and i’ve always enjoyed the various widgets they provided. I had one for horoscopes – the only one I can see on Ovi Store costs 7 Euro; I had a couple apps which downloaded some pretty amazing photographs, such as 500 mpx, and I cannot find anything similar to that on Ovi Store.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the fact that Nokia opened up the Ovi Store, however I just wish they didnt close down Widsets, as there were some great things available there.
Of course the benefit that Ovi Store has over Widsets is the ability to download and install native and Java apps as opposed to just some widgets. Too bad they didnt port something to support those widgets via WRT.
