SBSH PocketBreeze 4.3 Public Beta Announced
"New and exciting custom tab support! - PocketBreeze becomes the first today screen plug-in to allow close integration with any other today screen plug-in that can be added as a new tab inside PocketBreeze. The custom tab is loaded and released dynamically for better memory management and offers the best solution for the limiting today screen real-estate problem. New fresh VGA look! - VGA users will enjoy many design and default-settings improvements with PocketBreeze 4.3. Horizontal tabs scroll bar, better tabs management and some few additional user interface improvements. Scrolling by pages"
By far the most exciting thing in this new version of PocketBreeze is the ability to turn any today plugin into a tab. This means you save valuable real estate on the screen! PocketBreeze 4.3 is still in public beta, but I know plenty of you are still eager to try it regardless. However, the standard tips should still be followed when installing a beta: that is, backup first, then enjoy! :-)

What do you have going on here?
Is it only PocketBreeze? or PocketBreeze with PocketPlus embedded?

Pocketbreeze with cLaunch. This launcher plugin is really highly customizable 
(one thing: configure cLaunch loaded normally on today screen THEN load it to PB cause if you configure cLaunch in PB, it softresets when you quit settings...I've talked to Amit and he'll look into it )

You can load PocketPlus as a custom tab if you want. It works great!
The possibility of having more than the current 1 additional custom tabs is planned.

So, PocketBreeze is becoming Dashboard, by allowing other Today plugins to work within PB? Any advantages over Dashboard?

also the custom tabs will be dynamically loaded and unloaded as needed, saving RAM.
i like dashboard, but it's a dog, memory-wise.

I agree with KTamas here...I've long given up on Dashboard (it takes a lot of time to restart a device, soft-reset issues on different plug-ins and the support is way below compared to amit)...so far it works fine with my PPC. Glad this new feature got in with the new version...anyway, back to testing it out :way to go:
