I just can't get into this app. The aHome looks nice as well, but also unnecessary. Nice to see the potential of Android really coming out more and more.

Hey John I am sure you know this but I will just throw this out any way. If you longpress the home screen and select shortcut, select folder. Folder pops up on your home screen. Select it. Then longpress the word folder at the top and you can rename it. Then you can drag and drop icons into it. I am a icon hound too but still have tons of space on my home screen because of this.

It's coming - I promise :0)
I've got a huge project to do over the next week, but I'll get to it ASAP.

I wished I had used it yesterday when my wife and I were wandering around Portland, looking through various parking garages for her car.

My homescreens are no where near full but it seems like a pretty handy application. Good review.

I think the Dx feature is cool but here my question?.. To put a icon on the fourth window do it has to be a Dx icon? are you can put any icon on there? also can this dx application cause any glitch or harm to the phone because if it was suppose to be like that then htc/google would of made it like that?.. I wonder with all those applications on john g1 phone i wonder does it slows his g1phone down. Cause i know with my g1 when i try to download alot of applications when i try to view web pages specially ( Myspace pages ) it be saying there not enough memory please erase some cache are applications hmm

Hi, Tayaaa. You'll see in the part where I show my current applications what i have running in the background - just self help. I generally avoid apps that launch on start. I don't know how dxTop works, but it doesn't slow things down as much as some app that are always running. Still, I'd like to see some updates that make it just a bit quicker.

Is this really necessary?
Programs are alphabetically sorted in your programs tab, this is a bit goofy if you ask me... which ya did ;)

I prefer categorizing them. But I've got a proper GMote review coming, YanivC. I did a quick and dirty demo that really didn't show much. So I emailed the dev and got to work. I'm now streaming my home music library over the Internet to my phone while I'm out, got local playback going for all three OS's, and more. Look for it within 2 weeks.
