I use a dialpad based on the stock dialer and it will not work at all when installing on top of the Big Button dialer. But from the stock dialer, the Big button dialpad works fine as does the other dialpad which I am using.
As far as the Comm Manager is concerend, I really have no problem with using the 7 Button comm manager but yet again, this is a "Clean" ROM and adding a non-stock item would make it otherwise.
Again, however, DCD's "clean" ROM includes all Touch like interface, thus that might be of interest to you.

I love it how you say that as if I'm not familiar with DCD's work.
I've been messing with dcd's latest kitchen, but I'm not so happy with the speed results of his later builds.
For a while I was wondering why everyone liked 6.1 - my roms based on DCD were going slower than the stock 3.16 GPS beta running 6.0.
No2chem's release is brilliantly fast, albeit low on memory and riddled with the stock dialer and comm manager that are arguably as ugly as they are inconsistent with the rest of the windows mobile theme.
I didn't know that about the stock dialer tho, thanks for enlightening me as to why we have it. The problem is, in case you haven't noticed, installing a dialer on top of another one eats available memory- I'm not sure why this is the case (I've got a few theories), and it may be only a meg or two, but when you're dealing with precious few mb's left available, every one counts!
I still think if you want your own dialer, its better to remove the original and burn it into the rom. However, for those of us who don't plan on changing the dialer, at least give us a better one than the stock!!
