and everytime i think about buying a new device, there's just another newer one. So I'll be lucky with my ACE till the day all of the new devices have the exactly same features and there is no more need to decide between a few :D

Hmm for me it's quite smooth and i have 6 homescreens with a 4x2 widget in every homescreen O:
I've also installed the launcher as a system app... don't know maybe this would help :D?
But notice this is still beta but this launcher has great potential for those who wont aosp launcher on froyo and gingerbread :)

And guys nearly a half page is off topic pls in general section but not here :D

EDIT: Will also always trying to update the op if someone is interested in this launcher :)

EDIT2:Just got a advise : To prevent lagg try to tick the option to keep the launcher in memory (can be found in launcher settings)

The drawer is quite laggy, would be great if it can be improved ^^. Uninstalled while that issue is solved.
