I believe SPB Mobile Shell is very popular but I haven't actually tried it.

I went with SPB Pocket Plus instead, which is great for extending the today screen onto several different tabs, which you tap to select rather than slide. Each tab may contain any combination of other plugins, shortcuts and information icons. When used with SPB Phone Suite, Weather and Diary it becomes very handy indeed. :)

See the link in my sig for some screenshots of the layout I was using a couple of months ago...

WM 6.5 has its own home screen and if you like that, you dont have to install á 3rd party home screen. That would save up the resources.

I'm testing SPB Mobile Shell now (before SPB Pocket Plus -> Touch Flo3d). Mobile Shell needs similar amount of RAM as Touch Flo - about 59-64% used RAM on my 1.93 stock HTC ROM Diamond. Of course Shell is more powerful and has many configurable widgets, but has some TF's imperfections to (like lack of tasks on today screen).
Pocket Plus is very good and stable application (it has some additional features like useful and comfortable task manager, IE extension, repeating reminders... ), but it feels a bit old (or 2D if you like :) )

If you're looking for something ready, i would try Point UI 2. It's really light, but still, has a lot of functions and is good looking.

But to me, the best is Homescreen ++ UI, but it's only worth it if you dedicate some time and write your own today plugin...for example, mine one has 5 independent sliding rows with all the stuff i want to see on my today. I use it combined with S2U2, so all my appointments and music playing i leave it to S2U2 and S2P. That keeps me with about 60 mb free with Lumos, Flipit, S2U2 and the homescreen enabled against about 40 mb (at best) with MAnilla.

For me Resco Contacts is very good.
It gives me a quick look of communications,Phone,SMS and E-mails and also easy access to contacts , phone history , sms, e-mails.

I think SPB Mobile Shell 3 is a good user interface but not good enough to replace Manilla Rhodium by XBMOD,cause it doesn't get in depth into the windows menus..For the ram thing,use a custom rom and you will find what you need...
