"A lot of IE windows" could be considered a downside for PocketPlus, especially since the system's slow enough as is WITH the program in place. ;) Adding the extra windows (and the RAM and CPU cycles involved in maintaining them) could be considered a downside. PocketPlus does do a lot, but it's not irreplaceable - I use WBA2 for most of the same things I'd use for PocketPlus, and Opera for WM5 for multi-page browsing.

I've been debating between those two as well but I went with the ilauncher for the following reasons:

1. it can integrate with pocketbreeze so you can have everything managed under tabs.
2. it also can put an application tray down the bottom and it's a very nice feature for your frequently access programs.
3. the meters are nice and there are many custom made icons out there to improve the overall feel.
4. It's fast..much faster than pocket plus. The pocket plus takes soo much longer to refresh/load, especially if you are under the taps with the meteres. The brightness control on pocket plus just doesn't work at all.
