If I can get the custom icons and panels working I will. I downloaded it on my TP1 for the first time and really like the way it works and feels. The music player is a little quirky but other than that it's pretty cool. I just need more customization. I haven't figured out how to add more programs. The ones I want don't show up in the navigation pane.

By the way, there is a MS 3 thread already started for the TP2, plus there is more in the Home Screen thread sticky.

Yes, YES, and HELL YES.
I"ve already installed it.
I really like the MS3 interface, better than the touchflo and better than the standard WinMo UI.

+1. Heck ya.

I don't think you'd ever go back to TF3D after playing with MobileShell3 (I certainly couldn't!). I don't miss TF3D even a little bit!

MS3 is WinMo's best kept secret...

Yeah, I tried to like the new TF3D when I got it yesterday, but I installed MS3 first thing this morning.

MS3 is pretty good but I keep going back to TF3D... it's just eye candy. TF 2.1 does a good job staying out of the WM6.1 UI which makes it that much better.

Yah, I too need MS3 to really enjoy this (any) WM phone anymore. The problem I do have is that MS3 DOES have some problems, with this newest ROM. Specifically the wireless widget (doesn't work with Bluetooth)...and more importantly, the dialer; none of the bottom row or icons work, nor can you launch to contacts...I sur hope SPB fixes these...but I fear it will be until MS3.5 come out...and who knows what will happen with WM6.5...

But I still prefer it, even with these issues, over TF. (and especially with Weatherpanel widget)

Any of you guys have any ideas how to fix these?

Gotta agree there...TF3D is definitely just eye candy

Just replied to your visitor message JZ*. The MS3 / HTC dialer issues are known to SPB. See here. Major flaw IMO but not worth giving up the product for...provided they fix it soon!

The second I used TFlow I hated it.
Found the spb mobile shell 3.0.1 and I love it. I will never go back.....

Not to hijack your thread but I had a TP back in May with MS3.0 and put my copy onto my TP2, how do I upgrade to 3.0.1?
