Here's an alternative application browser and launcher, if you are interested in such a program.
TouchLaunch
TouchLaunch is simple application launcher, which scans startmenu shortcuts, and list them alphabetically. This is very early alpha and my first program release.
Features:
-finger friendly scroll function
-quick alphabet shortcuts, either letterbar on screen edge, or abcgrid(similar to iContact )
-skinnable
-you can use todays' background image as this launcher's background
-supports custom icons ( 46 included in cab )
-you can categorize shortcuts in unlimited number of categories
-finger gestures to move through categories, left and right sweeps changes category
