Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried PointUI. I really liked it but it murderlized my battery. I have the Sedio high capacity battery and I could'nt get much more than 2/3 of a day out of it when before and after I uninstalled it I could get a whole day out of it. Interesetingly, the power issue seemed to creep in over time along with more lockups.

As far as paying, I was truly ready to donate for it when I started to realize that it would be unusable because of the power drain. With no response from the website after many posts on the power drain issue, I uninstalled it.

I have no issue with paying for software that I am sure I will be using. Heck I have Sprite on my last 3 phones (paid version) and will surely have it on all of my future phones because it has saved my bacon so many times.
The only problem is, many times the trial period for software is not long enough. I know that I didn't really start to confirm the issue with PointUI until 50 to 60 days into using it.
