I, too, have gone back to Rhodium manila. IMHO, MS is eye candy...more fluff than substance really...the 3.5 update is nice...but it doesn't play well with the TP2. The dialer feature thing has been addressed...but haven't seen anyone mention that the Bluetooth toggle doesn't work.

Also, another case in point concerning the fluff, is the 3d message view. Looks great...but you can't function in that UI. When u choose to reply...you're sent back to WinMo's native messaging screen.

I normally run MS for about 2-3 weeks...and I'll go back to manila...just a change of pace...especially when we can't flash our phones yet.

OP, good looking out...but you should search the forums first...because SPB is all over the joint...esp in the software and theme sub forum.

really? I hit bluetooth and it turned on. lol! I think the problem here is with most ppl trashing this is that you guys haven't used 3.5. Granted earlier versions of this shell were bugged and the current version still has a few bugs (such as the reply button. Just hit the note itself in 3d view and you're taken to a screen so you can reply. do not use the reply button) but I honestly don't know of ANY shell (windows mac whatever) that has 0 defects.

I think you're all being a little too harsh. As for eye candy vs productivity? I have all my office mobile links/instant messenger/tasks/and appointments on ONE screen. TF 2.1 doesn't do that. It's that simple. And I can reconfigure it how I like. again TF 2.1 does NOT have that ability.
