The two programs are quite different. Wisbar is a customizable title bar replacement w/ some quick launch capabilities and other cool features like cascading menus. Pocket Plus is primarily a quick launch application with safe mode, PIE and File Explorer integration and a few other features. Both have a close button that actually closes an application. Both are resource hungry apps. Both support skinning.

I own both programs and couldn't ever dump WisBar -- if for nothing else than the cascading menus. I shelved Pocket Plus for SBSH's iLauncher. It is much faster than Pocket Plus and most of the PP functions are supported. I use PIE Plus to give PIE the missing features it should have. I use Resco File Exploer to browse my PDA. Still waiting for MonoCube to release a WM5 version of SafeMode.

To answer your question, if it's an "either or" situation, keep WisBar, although both are valuable applications with little overlap.
