Just wanted to report my experience...

lol, good to know.
I was just about to write the
opposite though!
In fairness, I'm running version
1.5 beta 2
That supposedly fixes the battery drain issue as well as:
- Potential battery leak fixed (at least we hope so!).
- More flexible softkey configuration (for example, if you ever had Pocket Informant calendar softkey on Today, you will get "PI Calendar" option in the combo box; same about other programs)
- Tabs are in a keyboard cycle (e. g. you can press left on the left tab and the right most tab will be selected)
- Photo contacts: the first selected contact is the left most
- Fixed a notification leak
- Fixed bug when Spb Mobile Shell could not install at all
- Fixed bug with annoying horizontal line in drop down mode
- Fixed bug with cursor track in Spb Pocket Plus
- Added help
- All logs are off starting from this build
- One potential crash scenario is fixed
I haven't used it extensively so I cannot comment on battery life per se, but I'm hoping it is fixed in this version.
I hate to admit but SPB is really impressing me with this and Phone Suite.
I notice
zero slowdowns, in fact I can't believe this thing is actually running. I honestly cannot tell the difference with it on or off. I love the navigation, customizations, the "now" screen...it's just all so great.
Now I never tried 1.0 so I can't directly compare but so far this is a keeper for me.
