Slide to Unlock Pro useage

I know this may come as a shock to a lot of members here, but I am looking into the Slide to Unlock Pro app now. (don't worry, I am continuing my tweaks + customization work with S2U2) There are a couple reasons.....A_C being in the frame of mind he is in (not blaming him, just the way things are) and not continuing development (leading to reason 2) and with the fact I am eagerly anticipating the VZW release of the Treo 800w (that S2U2 is incompatible with)!!

Basically, I want to see if there are any Pro users active in here and get a thread going reguarding the usage, customization, and overall opinion of this particular app!!!!

I will add the site and app download here for any new users, but please...any current users....I really want feedback on this....leaving A_C's apps behind is the hardest thing I am facing with changing devices (P.S. if anyone knows a good S2P-type app I will be looking LOL)!!!
