Re: Why all the fascination for TouchFlo 2D/3D?
Heheh... found this thread, and it sounds like SecondToday might be the app for me.
Personally I LOVE Manilla, not just for it's looks, but it's functionality (for my uses). I could see how it would be annoying for those who use the calendar a lot. I don't make heavy use of that feature myself, but was surprised by it's rather thin implementation.
On the other hand, I have to pay attention to 3 different email accounts for work, as well as my personal one, and being able to quickly view each account's latest mail with a flick of the thumb is really handy.
Another thing that I really haven't heard anybody mention is the Outlook enhancement.
When you go to reply to an SMS, or an email (or read the full message because it requires your attention), the enhancements in M2D only load the relevant chunk of Outlook, which makes for a smaller footprint, and almost instantaneous response, instead of loading the full Pocket Outlook each time (or keeping the full Outlook running and slowing down the whole phone).
With the amount of email I get on the go, I've found that the email/SMS portion of M2D makes dealing with email WAY more efficient than the standard Pocket Outlook, or any 3rd party email app I've used (and I've tried most).
That, combined with the contacts, and the customizable list of quick links for Opera have made my Vogue MUCH more usable for the everyday things, than it's ever been before.
That being said, I DO miss a couple of Today plug-ins, like GPSToday, A2DPToggle and TwitToday, but they're more superfluous (at least in my usage) than than the way M2D handles email, SMS and browsing.
The only two things I'd like to see in Manilla are a "Classic Today Plugins" tab, and a more customizable calendar.
