I guess as long as it's coming from their (SPB) site then we have not violated our (PPCGeeks) rules regarding warez, etc. However, if the release is premature or violates some aspect of SPB we'll take it down if contacted.

late,

Anyone find a built in lock screen like MS2 had?

Open Launcher>Swipe left or right>tools>lock device (icon is missing).

I don't know, maybe there is something wrong with me but I went back to tf3d again after playing around with this for about 2 hours.

The widgets screen was cool, also the facebok contact pictures import function... but I dunno, I started to miss the tf3d eye candy almost immediately, also the tf3d music player which i love. Mobile shell 3 is more functional than tf3d but I can't stand the dull look of it atm, I'll probably install it again when some cool themes start popping out.

The cool thing about it is it doesnt seem to hog memory or run drain the battery. At the very least I wouldnt mind having them both (TF3D and Mobile Shell) installed and then turn on the one I feel like using at the moment.

I really like this. We'll have to wait and see how much customization can be done with it. Does anyone know how/if you can add pics to the main contact list. I looked around but couldn't find anything.

My icon isn't missing.
And that's just the built-in/OEM/WM6.1 DeviceLock. It doesn't change the screen. Just locks everything. But it would be nice to have that linked to the home screen.... [thinking].... maybe use a widgit?

looks like they skimped on that part.

I played around with it a bit and I am actually pretty impressed. I think its a more than viable alternative to TF3D and would probably be best paired up with a stable and fast 6.5 ROM. The cool thing about it is that it replaces a lot of the stuff we used to install to make TF3D seem fancier... like icontact, maybe thumbcal ... the 3d page view is very cool! I like the weather... I was never really a big fan of really detailed weather apps. Give me the temperature and a few days forecast highs and lows and I am good... The contacts carousel complete with facebook integration is a cool idea. Also love the idea of a professional today screen and a "fun" today screen.

I would actually pay for this app. Hope the official version comes out soon. This with a 6.5 ROM would be money.
