What's with the Calendar gadget?!

One of the emblematic Windows 7 gadgets, the calendar, has its way o misbehaving (see snapshot, right). It basically does not show anything except a solid orange box. Trying to fix it by restarting it did not work. Upon a search on the Internet I could not find anything of value to help solve the issue, not even in the Microsoft websites (!) and I gave up and, worse! I uninstalled it and I have no way to know how to reinstall it. Go figure! Until a new version is relesead (beyond 1.0), I will stop using this gadget. I'm not going to bother with this issue. However, when I'm in a better mood for gadgets I will try and review the Windows Gadget Platform (in Vista it used to be called the sidebar and the gadgets were all together in one block). A nice Windows shortcut to bring to the front all the gadgets, buried under open applications, is Windows Key + G.
