vbar or magic button

hello,
because I'm not satisfied with the performance of the switchbar, I want to download either Vbar or magic button. I wonderd wich one is superior to the other. I also use my switchbar for battery indication (because I don't have a little batteryicon at the top of the screen), so which one has the battery indication too?
Thanks!

They both worked well for me. I liked the presentation and usage of MagicButton a bit better. Try them both out (but not at the same time!). I am actually using neither now; iLauncher has a task manager as of V3 that works even better for me.

I was using vBar and it worked well, but like AKAJohnDoe, I too have switched to iLauncher 3.0.

If you decide you like it and want to buy it or other SBSH software go here: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=59541 and post a request and they will send you a discount code. i was usind MB but have switched ti iLauncher as it does a few jobs that i was using multiple packages for.

Even at full price ($not much) iLauncher is worth every penny.

Am I missing it or doesn't ILauncher have visible icons at the top like MB? I like these to see what apps are running and to switch between apps with one tap.

The running programs are shown in the Task Manager in iLauncher, but not as icons on the top bar. Two taps, one to bring up the TM and another to switch apps, is the current state of iLauncher.
