Having tried both magicbutton and vBar, I use MB because it's prettier than vBar (though you can use your own icons in vbar and thus could fix the ugliness). I also appreciate being able to see which programs are currently running by just by looking at the top of the screen (versus clicking a button in vBar).

vBar does seem slightly snappier (though I haven't used it enough to say for sure). You can always try them both.

MagicButton 2.0 was released a few days ago and includes compatibility with WM5. I've noticed though that the 2.0 version has a slight problem with locking up the titlebar while using the dell wireless utility (not a real big deal).

By the way, I just upgraded to an x50v two weeks ago from a handspring Visor edge. The axim is quite a jump from palm os 3.5, I'm still getting confused, but I'm learning and I think the axim is great. :approve:
