Defintely quicker then V0.17 and so far, just as stable. Just added lightbiter's theme to it and now it really looks good... plus it matches my theme perfectly.

I havent used any keyboard with it except the slideout and TouchPalPro v2 and both work with impressive compatiability. No covering or distortion of either the background or keypad screen.

How come whenever I try to send SMS the T9 guess words don't show up? I have to go to the Choose SIP page everytime for it to display that again. Also why doesn't PCM take over incoming messages? I feel like it defies the whole point of the program.

I discovered this and if it has already been discussed then please dismiss:

You have to have PocketCM running in order for it to intercept sms messages from reaching default messenging. I even made a shortcut to my \windows\Startup folder so that PocketCM starts automatically on soft reset...

Is anyone using PocketCM with Pocket Informant? I'm not a big fan of PI's contacts, so I'm looking for an alternative.

since i have never posted a dagnamn thing here other than my opinion, i make sure that i try to never complain or criticize those that spend so much of their time and talents helping the rest of us out ... having said that, i would also like to say that although i really like the new 0.18, i may have to re-install the older 0.17 ifi cant get rid of this 'tarded sip that keeps popping up every time i text somebody! how in the hades do i disable that thing!?!

If you click on the contact's name in the top of the screen a drop-down menu shows up. select "Choose SIP" and then the top one is "no SIP." Or it's some garbled code that is supposed to mean "no SIP." Either way, choose that one :) I usually have to do it a couple times before it stops showing up.

RB, right on ... good lookin out homie. unfortunately, i dont have that option in the drop down like in the older versions ... i only get "show sip" and "choose sip". ill try downloading it again ... :)

Yeah, that's right, "Choose SIP" then the button at the top.

Works great on my Mogul. Still, when I get my SMS via PocketCM's threaded app, they show as unread on the Today screen and via the default messaging app.

RB!!! G@%&%V#! i feel HEEEEELLLLLA 'stoopit'! .... i never paid any attenetion to that button! out of the corner of my eye i dismissed it as an outta place, funny-style web address or some crap cuz it says, 'menu.nosip.text'. ... another good example of why i dont talk crap to people in forums! :) thats brah!-choir
