i've had always used SPB, from TOUCH, TOUCH PRO, and now TOUCH PRO 2... Honestly, the more i got familiar with spb the more i found Manila annoying to use but that is my personal opinion. I find Spb to be more simplified.

How's the speed? the only reason I'm not using it is that I have found 3.x to be sluggish...

Did they dump the widget-ized Professional layout? That's the major reason I switched back to 3.0.1...

is the battery drain issue still present? I tried it for a day and my battery died after 4 hours. went back to manila and it last 1.5 days now. go figure. Otherwise it was a great shell.

Agreed. It works flawlessly for me and with SPB Plus Ultimate it beats Manila in both visual appeal and utility. It seems to consume about the same amount of RAM, if not less.

What exactly is SPB Plus Ultimate, and where can it be bought? Also, how did you get that clock?

It comes with SPB Plus Ultimate along with a lot of other goodies. It's simply an enhancement that removes the bottom SPB Mobile bar so you can put your own shit down there. I highly recommend it - all you do is install a cab file after a fresh install of SPB Mobile 3.5.1.

Not sure, although I'm guessing it does simply because 3.5.2 is essentially the same as 3.5.1 besides a several small fixes. I'm sure you'll be able to find out somewhere in the XDA thread.
