(I can't believe people use tf3d.. It's so slow to get things done in there.. I tried it.. for almost 6 months before ditching it)

I second this. I did'nt want offend those TF3D folks but since you opened up the door...
Yes 1000% seems like a good number.

This one will be sticking around. I am waiting for official release so i can finally get rid of the multiple programs i use to make tf3d better. Also, the other UI's just took a major blow...better step up your game...lol

Well I just wanted to give you my opinion... SPB Mobile shell 3 is good but it lacks to many features of TF3D that I'd like to have in mobile shell...

A few examples...

* Quick browsing trough Opera bookmarks (& NOT BLOODY IE bookmarks!)
* Swipe trough sms messages
* Email previews (swipe)
* Excellent audio player with album art
* Nice picture browser
* True eye candy

Missing these features (Ok, the eye candy isn't a feature & can be fixed with themes) makes it hard for me to ditch TF3D for mobile shell 3, it's a great app and it's easy to understand why so many people prefer it to tf3d but it's just not for me...

Yeah there are good things about both but diomark is right on! MS3 is fairly customizable, TF3D is not.
Of course TF3D does have it's strengths but being very customizable is not one of them.

Sounds fair enough.

I wonder if there will be the ability to add new "widgets" in the future to solve some of the missing or lacking features.

I have spb phone suite, and it integrates well. The ring icon on the lifestyle screen now corresponds to the profiles you set up instead of just vibrate and sound.

i like the customiztion of the lifestyle screen i am still messing around with it. i just used the facebook thing and updated some contact pics to and that worked without a flaw and i didnt have to use the wifi... so far i prefer this over the tf3d just because of the customization and im sure in the near future more will be able be done with it

I found another bug.

I installed the new Project Copper WinMo 6.5 ROM and the OS's theme take precidence over SPB MS3 themes. In short, WinMo themes control the color scheme...not MS3's themes.....
