I would imagine not. They are 2 different programs to do the exact same thing.

Dashboard always was (and probably still is) a performance pig.

hi,

I asked a similar question over at sbsh forums and here's what I was told:

"I have both co-existing fine. I've since upgraded Dashboard to the latest beta (2.7.01). If you do the same and have a 640x480 VGA display, make sure you load the new skins. For some reason, de-installing 2.5.03 doesn't remove the smaller skins. You will be left with a screwed up display after a soft-reset. If you have an iPAQ hx4700 series PDA, email Snoopsoft and request the latest beta. Evidently there is a compatiblility problem w/ 2.7.01 and the hx4700 series"

hope this helps others in this forum too...

These two produts compliment each other not compete.

wisbar - the main function is the cascading start menu (amongst a whole bunch of other really useful features)

dashboard - literally gives you 5 today screens (via tabs) to spread all your plugins over. it comes with a couple of plugins too but you don't have to use them. dashboard actually helps my hx4700 run better by not loading in all the today plugins at once. It will load the ones assigned to each tab. i doubt i would be able to fit 10 today plugins on my ppc without it.

Yes you can use both together and have no problems.
