Re: Why all the fascination for TouchFlo 2D/3D?

Simply Amazing!

Manilla is pretty but if pretty was important, I'ld have an iphone.
The animation is okay, but it makes me wonder if it hurts performance in other ways as well...

But the preview for text makes it easy for me to see if i need to respond, I always hated the preview that popped on the screen. Also the same goes for email, I can read just enough to know if it requires an immediate response. So I wouldn't view it as making this into more of a dumbphone, as I am still able to easily do the things I purchased a WM phone for to begin with.
I use my calendar a lot--and if you say you use it a lot too, wouldn't you want a NON-TF2D phone? That shows all your calendar appointments on the Today screen?

I had my left softkey assigned to thumbcal before this, and my right to icontacts, and now it seems I have to jump through hoops to get to either of them.

Like I said.. fun toy..

Maybe with the "Second Today" application, I can get used to this--because I am getting the Pro the first day it comes out to Sprint... I want to make sure I won't be disappointed--the main reason I am even entertaining the idea of TF2D/3D

I really just want WM7 to come out already, so we won't need silly overlays like this anymore...
