Just downloaded to my Droid Incredible and I love it. I have a question though…What weather and clock widgets can I use with it?

i know what you mean exactly its alittle more but im guessing its because of the finer and smoother layout

Excellent Home replacement – highly recommended. Not sure about memory usage, because unlike Helix Launcher (using ~20-28Mb) it does not even show up in process list.

This is really nice, I played with it a bit when it was beta/root and thought it was a bit sluggish. not any more.

I think I still like LauncherPro better, and LauncherPro better than Helix 1 (now that LP auto-rotates the home screen AND has customizable persistent apps).

But ADW most certainly takes the prize for customization possibilities! Wow.

i used helix for a long long time! no joke i thought it was the shizznits lol but im honestly torn between the LP and ADW both are nice! very nice really! i mean LP has such a smooth smooth lay out of the and the menu transition is very very awesome. and ADW its very nice more screens to mess with and to customize lol but somehow i dont like the left to right menu part lol. im might being a brat but i dont know i really like LP. i mean man i loves that one! its smooth and clean until FroYo comes for the droid who knows we might not need them after a while…NOT lol but i like LP. But i would still recommend ADW.

ADW works very well. Does anyone know of I can move folders from the stock to the ADW home/Launcher?

Don't switch launcher pro is way faster.. no need for lag.

The update was to fix bettercut shortcuts not working which was not fixed.Hope they will fix that cause bettercut is very handy for changing icons.ADW is very nice.I was a helix 1 guy and now I can not decide between LP or ADW.Have fun all.

It shouldn't. At least I know Helix launcher doesn't wipe that out. If I understand it right, it's basically that you're running a different application as your home/launcher. The stock home/launcher is its own app with its own settings.
