S2U2 Landscape

I'm all about alternatives... but S2U2 is still the best in terms of functionality and simplicity, in my opinion. I tried PocketShield for a week and hated it. Didn't like the skins, found it too complicated to make new ones, and didn't have the notifications functionality that I actually depend on... I guess one man's bloat is another man's lifesaver!

Besides, there's only a few minor bugs between 2.04 and the TP2, both of which are being worked on. Still, it's great to have alternatives, and the more the merrier!

I agree, it is nice to have options.

Personally, I could care less about skinning a locking app. I would much rather have a light weight bug free app than one that looks cool PocketShield unlocks so fast by light in the latest versions I'm not even sure what it looks like anyway). There are about 4 pages of downloadable skins on the PS site that will DL & install completely automatically also if that's what you're into.

The latest PS has basically the same notifications as any other locking app I think (I can't think of any it's missing at this point)
