spb mobile shell as a ui replacement?

[t.burninator]

Hi again, very recently I was about to reinstall pointui but then I found spb mobile shell 2 and I absolutely love it. I love it so much that I would like to disable the today screen on my sprint touch so that spb mobile shell becomes the home interface. Right now I emulate this by simply removing all of the items off the today screen, if I hit the softkey to hide mobile shell it takes me to a blank today screen with just my background image, with the left and right softkeys mapped to take me back to mobile shell. Is it possible to do this? I would need the phone to boot directly into spb mobile shell, and to render the softkey that hides spb useless.

Also is it possible to also disable htc touchcube and htc task manager? They are nice but no longer needed.

Thanks
