With the lauchers/desktops I studied Nova and Apex for a while and in the end went for Apex. More options available and runs fast and smooth for me. Also it supports themes.

Pffft almost 2 months late. It was meant to come out on the 26th April! Wouldn't be surprised if they delayed it again
Like Opera then
Don't like boat because of the UI, just looks like safari on the iphone...............
Plus the quick controls for ICS based browsers are too good to give up!
After having played with both apex and nova now, I have also ended up using apex as my primary launcher now.
- No matter what I did with the margins and grid etc. the widgets just didn't look quite right when compared to apex (using the same margins as well)
- the glow when you select a dock icon doesn't look as nice as apex either (not really an issue, but it annoys me.....
)
- when activating the shortcut for qbright on nova, the widgets reload (go blank and come up saying "LOADING" every time after a brightness has been selected (not a massive issue again, as they load instantly anyway), where as with apex the homescreen just goes blank for like a milli second after you choose a brightness mode
- It is good to have the app drawers back on nova, however, it looks so bland and rather unpleasant IMO when the app drawer is opened and no where near the look of go's app drawers, hope it gets improved
- At first I thought there was a lot more features than apex, however, now I am not so sure as after looking at pro version for apex, both seem to be more or less the same, nova maybe has a few more features
- In some areas nova is more polished than apex and in other areas apex is more polished than nova (after todays update)
So pretty much, they are more or less the same from what I can see.

^^^ typical. I buy Nova for the improved dock gestures - then Apex updates with improved dock gestures the next day.
Lol

I know, not a laughing matter buuuuut.... lol
sounds like the scriptwriter from my life has done a guest stint working a few stories into yours.thep02 - lol I've sent him back to you.
tho I bagged a 3TB hdd for £60
See, he's already back writing sub Eastenders dirge in mine, while you've got your regular guy back over from the USA throwing around spectacular sexy storylines like a virtually free 3tb hdd
