I want to try SPB Mobile Shell on it again, but I remember the trial was horribly slow on TP. Anyone got it running, where it's actually fast?

MS3 Work great (very fast)...it does have a couple of "known" issues though...using the dialer, the bottom row of stuff (email, sms etc) doesn't work...neither does the contact tab, within the dialer screen...not sure why, but searching around, it looks like SBP has known about it for awhile now...hopefully a fix soon?

Anyway...only shortcomings I can find, and not a show stopper by any means...I like it better than TF...but thats just me

Hey All,
I am going from a Touch (Vogue) to the TP2. I never upgraded to the TP1 after I heard all the horror stories of everyone having to replace them all of the time. Once the Verizon TP2 is available I will definitely be ordering it. What I am wondering is this. Since I am kind of like a little kid in a candy store, what programs are the "must haves?" From what I have read above and researched so far there are a few that I know I want to have. Other than the ones I am listing, are there any others that you think I should check out?

Think I will get:
Sprite Backup (Get HTC discount and it looks better than the SPB version.)
Sprite Terminator
G-Alarm (Looks like a very useful program.)
Skyfire (Seems like it is well worth the download.)
GPS Weather Radar (Easier than using the browser.)

Not sure about:
pTunes (Seems pricey)
Documents to Go (Why do I need this if it already has Word, Excel, PowerPoint already installed on it?)

I already have and use:
Resco File Explorer
Google Maps
S2U2
Pandora
Pocket Breeze (Highly recommend this program. Merges Tasks and Calendar together in one easy to use, highly customizable format.)

Well there is my $.02 worth. Any help would be appreciated.

I went to www.Pandora.com and was able to get the Windows Mobile version for download. VERY COOL app. Easy to use, just type in your favorite group and it plays that group and ones that are similar to it. I have found nearly every genre of music available from Pandora. Only thing that gets old with it is that after a certain amount of time it will stop playing as has a popup that asks if you are still there. The only advantage that I see with this is that you don't accidentally leave your phone connected and kill the battery. For me personally though, I don't just leave my phone laying around so if I am using Pandora, I am listening to it. Hope this helps.

SOTI Pocket Controller without a doubt. Expensive but extremely powerful.

Twitter users. Can you please suggest a good twitter app for the touch pro 2? I've not added any at all and this is going back to the Mogul phone which I will soon enough shut down. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
