Favorite thing about Handcent/Chomp/your sms app

---

(Thought I posted this last night...sorry if this is a repost)

I'm fine with the stock messaging app (other than whatever happens between the camera and autorotate sometimes) but I hear about people who stand by Handcent especially because it's "so customizable". I've tried it and the only thing I've found is that I like adding the smiley button on the on screen keyboard.

So, third party users, what specifically do you do with this customization?

As for the pop up quick reply, I'm on the fence. It feels a little intrusive at times...

Open handcent to the conversation screen (the one with the list of ppl you;ve texted).
Hit menu > Settings
Then play around in the custom style > conversation list and bubble settings.
and the notification settings. and pretty much every setting lol.

I <3 pop up quick reply.

Haha well I'm asking specifically what do you think is amaaaazing about it? I see that I can change this 'n that (and really most of it other than aesthetics seems pretty standard fare) but nothing seems to be a life changer to me...(high standards =P)

Like, I love Tasker (a paid app) not because of the billion possibilities it gives you for making your phone a superdevice but because of the specific things I have it do (automatically turn on wifi around my apartment and turn it off when I leave, turn on GPS with certain programs, turn off keyguard when plugged in).

Anything specific other than the pop up quick reply?
