I was eagerly awaiting the application to launch and installed it as soon as I could today.

My ultimate view...

Eh... so-so...

Definitely more eye candy, but some things just aren't up to par...

1) The Now screen is supposed to be everything you need at a glance... Everything, that is, except for a voicemail indicator

2) I haven't been able to get PocketInformant 8 to be recognized by MobileShell

3) The old launcher had 9 first-tier menus; this release only allows for 6

4) Adding programs to the submenus continues to be a pain

5) The mediocre weather support from MobileShell 1.5 took a step backwards in that there is no option to use an alternate weather app

6) Still no convenient way to back-up settings (should be an export/import settings option like other developers)

The program looks good (aesthetically) but with the issues above, I'll pass.
