Stack V3 which is currently in private alpha was updated over the weekend to a new version and this thing is looking great!  For those who don’t know, Stack V3 is an app which gives you, well, stacks, just like on the iPhone’s big brother, OS X Snow Leopard.  I have actually donated to the developer for this app to get access and man this is looking great.  It definitely still needs some work, don’t get me wrong, but this 2nd alpha version is a big leap forward.  Just look at the changes in this new update:

New in Alpha 2:
• Multiple Stacks
• Dimming of screen when opening a Stack
• Reflective Dock support
• Support for iTunes 9’s App Management
• Stack Update Notifications (notification when there’s a new version available)
• New Grid View animations (temporary)
• Stacks are findable/openable using Spotlight
• Badge Support – currently disabled while I try and fix some issues
• The Stack image (both the open and closed Stack) are now per-Stack (you can theme different Stacks to have different icons)

This app requires a jailbroken device to be able to run and the only way to get this on a stock iPhone is to pray to the iGods and hope that Apple decides that they like this idea and decides to copy it.  There are some known bugs and some missing features, hence the reason it is in the alpha testing phase.  I highly suggest all of you who are jailbroken at the very minimum toss him a beer for his hard work and try this app out.  Right now it is not available via Cydia and must be installed manually via SSH.  It’s great apps like this that make the jailbreak process totally worth it.  Once this app is fully matured, this will definitely be replacing Categories as my go to app organization method.
