Hey, I am kinda new to the axim and windows PDAs in general (last one I owned before my x30H was a Palm M125 (I think). Ive been looking into the today screen replacements and cant decide between SPB Pocket Plus and iLauncher. Both of these look good but I just dont know which to go with... it seems Pocket Plus has a lot more to it (IE enhancement, button replacement, and close button enhancement) where as iLauncher is really simple. What do you all recomend and is there any different today replacement I should look at?
You can combine iLauncher with Wisbar. Together, they will do what SPB Pocket Plus does (may be more?). The advantage of this setup is that iLauncher is an excellent launcher with great tech support; and there are numorous skins available for Wisbar. But these are all good programs. You can download them and see which are more to your liking.
Pocket plus has a few new features on version 3. i.e. alt-tab functionality you can assign to a hardware button and its a little easier to add appt to a page by simply tapping and holding on that page.
I tried converting to wisbar and ilauncher but find that wisbar seems to slow down my X51v a little too much for my liking.
I also found wisbar to be VERY slow when switching to and from landscape.

I have Pocket Plus on my Axim and i really like it, used the discount code that can be found on this site and that made the deal even better. I combined Plus with Diary and then are very good together. I have not used iLauncher & Wisbar though, figure if i am happy with Spb why change.
I've actually bought both and am now running iLauncher and Wisbar 2. I found that PPlus to be bloated in terms of features that I didn't really use or need.
Try the trials for both to determine what works best for you.
look at their screenshots! noticed at the top of the screen, the dashed lines are ugly.
is that your only reason? I happen to like knowing my battery power no matter what screen Im on... maybe thats the little bit of PalmOS in me though...

Just add to it Pocket Informant and youŽve got yourself a great combo!

VFX that ugly dashed line is a battery gauge! youŽll see that it becomes quite useful since you can know your battery status from almost any program without having to close it. Besides, you can always resize it!
yupp.. those lines on top monitors the battery which you can turn off if you want (personally I couldn't live without it). also to add, spb has some very nice plugins for spb plus which you can add later. spb folder and WMP control is now free.
