I hope I didn't miss this feature, but I'd like to see an option for small icons and a larger font selection. Also, the top of the launcher screen seems strangely open and plain. Larger icons on the toolbar might be nice, too.

Hi,

thank you for your suggestion. We are planning to allow customization of the number of icons as well as additional font sizes as part of one of the next updates.

I admit that I am somewhat subjective, as I am a big fan of Iambic products. I currently use Agendus Pro on my Lifedrive, Premier on my Treo 650, YourCall, Tiny Sheet, Easy Notes (Lifedrive), and added Propel to my Treo 650 the day it launched, without even a trial. Does it need some interface work, yes it does. Is it a great product... well, lets put it like this, I replaced LauncherX the day I installed it and have no regrets. I would like to replace Facer Launcher on my Lifedrive as well, but it is too expensive. I often blog about Technology products on my personal (http://www.grupo-utopia.com/blog/isou/) and business blogs (http://www.davidscottanderson.net/blog/). And have written reviews of several Iambic products. My personal blog is one of the most popular in the world.

What would I change about Propel.... Tough question. The only thing I have wanted to do is to customize the views a bit more. I would like to view Favorite Contacts and Aps on seperate screens. I dont like my contacts mixed in with my applications. So that is one thing I would change. Perhaps it is already there and I have just not figured out how to use it.

As for other suggestions. I saw someone else recommend that more Agendus integration be provided. I am not sure how this could be done. Perhaps a Today screen like Facer Launcher has, with links to Agendus today items, mail, etc. Other than that, I would like to see some skinning, and interface enhancement. It would also be nice to have more intuitive tabbing and the ability to customize more the individual tabs.

I will probably buy Propel for my Lifedrive as well, as soon as the price goes down or you offer a special discount.

Just purchased this morning and know their is no "User Guide"...Is there anything I can get from someone to explain the functions and how to change/adjust them? I'm a little nervous after using good programs like zlauncher & LauncherX.

As someone else mentioned, I thought since I own a number of Iambic apps and use them on my Sprint 700p, apps would work better.

Thanks in advance.

We are working on the documentation for Propel as we speak. Unfortunately it will be a while yet before it's complete. Please feel free to ask any specific questions here and we'll answer them.

Also, you can tap on the 'i' at the top right of most Pref dialogs and get a short introduction on the features/preferences.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'vce tried the different skins available and I keep seeing 3 triangular shaped arrows at the top right of the screen. I don't see a purpose for these and I can't figure out a way to disable them. They are taking up space that keeps the minimalist skin from being able to display the 4th row of Icon as shown on the preview of the skin. I have a Treo 700P.

Thanks...
