They are not mutually exclusive.

I think there are a couple threads already debating this. Might want to try a search.

I really like Pocket Breeze. It has made my device much more usable.
I can stay more organized and see my tasks and appointments much easier now. Also, you can get 50% off if you PM amit on the thread about 50% off PB.

If you want tabs, you'll probably want something in addition to Pocket Breeze. I have both Pocket Plus and iLauncher. I'm not currently using Pocket Plus; instead, I am using iLauncher and Magic Button. I also have the Resco Utility Suite, which has some features that overlap as well.

I was using both until WM5
The difference between them is in the support.
With the release of WM5 suddenly I had an spb plus with crashes and memory leak and it took a couple of months to get it sorted.... and they wanted $15 (it might have been $20 i forget) for the upgrade.
Also at WM5 release I had Pocket Breeze that was partially functional, within a couple of days the beta was out for "tweakers" and support has been fantastic. The upgrade was free but they ALSO released a newer version which I could upgrade at a cost of $7.50 if I WANTED
Eventually I found iLauncher (also from SBSH) did everything else that I wanted and I don't use any SPB software now.

I'm not saying spb are BAD I'm just saying a team like the guys at sbsh are hard to beat
(if Amit sees this he will know that all that hassle on contact breeze will pay off eventually)

PocketBreeze vs. PocketPlus

Using PocketPlus but also have PocketBreeze (never installed).

Would installing the two programs be counter productive?
Anyone experience any compatibility issues?
Why might someone load both programs? Benefits?
Pro's and Con's?

I also have PocketWeather loaded.

Any ideas? :approve:

I ran PI, PB, PP, and IL (too many two-letter acronymns?) simultaneoulsy for awhile. I found that PP seemed to cause instability, so I replaced the close function with MB (Magic Button) and stopped running PP.

Seems to me that PP and IL are closer than PP and PB.

like what x3Jockey Said..it's all preference..I used to have both but I prefer to have PP only now as having PB took quite sometime to get the proper screen once you turn it on because of the loading time to today screen

I'm currently running both & I'm quite happy except that when I use the vertical tabs in PB it screws up the way PP displays it's tabs.
