Given that original Windows Mobile UI is really dated even glorified launchers make it a much nicer experience, not only visually but also in usability terms - TouchFlo makes most of the functions of the device finger friendly.

As for sluggish TouchFlo - I had HTC Wizard for some time (it's similar in specs to the Wing being mentioned here) and I don't think any, even the earliest beta versions of Diamond and TF3D would be that slow. In any case my Diamond with current official ROM build works really nice and smooth .
