SPB Mobile SHell Or WAD/WA3??

I have a dilemma I like both of these programs but I don't need them both. I have a HTC Touch.

I would just like to know:

Who is using either of these products?

Which one you prefer and why?

I just recently started using Mobile Shell. I was using iFonz before and just got bored with it. I am getting used to using the Diamond theme for SPB, and so far I like it - just gotta get used to it a little better. I haven't used WAD/WA3 yet, so I'm also interested in hearing what others have to say...

I know I am playing with the Mobile shell version of DIamond right now and I just can't decide. WAD or SPB Shell... WA3 and WAD let's you customize things a little better but the Mobile shell is such great eye candy.

MS kills my battery at about 15% per hour. Also, It looks good, but customizing is sucks bad.

I like WAD but I cant find any good themese for it.

Ive used both, I am now using SPB mobile shell, diamond theme. WAD always seemed buggy and slow, the customisation is way better, you could make it look like what ever you want. But for me the performance of mobile shell has been way better.. anyways thats my 2 cents....

I think WAD overall is a superior product if you have the time and desire for full customization. I use MS right now before its easy and is functional right out of the box. To be honest I go back and forth. WAD2 beta has actually got me interested again with its new features (Weather!!! with actual current temperature that MS doesnt do, and gesture support) so I have been slowly creating a WAD theme on the side and do plan to ditch MS as soon as its perfected......or so I say. So i guess I am as conflicted as the person who started the thread....

I'd like to see how that Diamond theme runs. The reason people like the Diamond theme is because the fluidness and the speed. Hopefully this is as fast and as smooth as the real one.

I have used them both back and forth and I will tell you that wisbar3 is by far better and smotther, spb uses to much memory for me. I like music and watching movies and surfing net, so avail memory is a must (wish htc would have just put the memory in this thing, it would be the king of the hill) anyway spb ends up useing 2-3mb compared to 599.7kb for wisbar3 sure new diamond theme looks cool and I used it already but just not worth it to me. also some are creating diamond skin for wisbar3 right as we speak.
