I am Happy the 2.1 Launcher is Not Coming to Us

[adrynalyne]

After messing with various 2.1 ROMs for the last week or so, I can honestly say that i am thrilled with the decision to not include the 2.1 Launcher on the Droid.


--Its slower than the drawer, and less intuitive.
--Its annoying. After launching it about three times and watching the icons fly into view, I could care less. I have to wait for that crap then scroll a screen at a time to get what I want. Which I might add, is less precise than the drawer.


I do like Live wallpapers, but the 2.1 Launcher is only needed to interact with them, and imo, interacting with them is also dumb.

So, the only thing I hope is they include the extra home screens that the 2.1 Launcher has. We know it can be done easily and without issue, so here is to hoping.

Please do not derail this thread with irrelevant info.

Thanks.

I could really care less as it's VERY rare i even go in the app drawer

That too.

I personally could do without the live wallpapers as well. To me it's eye candy you'll quickly get bored with. Unless they're eventually customizable by a user, they can keep that feature.

The smoke one is. But I did see a battery drain with them, most likely due to the fact that you are running your display a lot longer to look at them

MAJOR battery drain. If it does come, I hope they address that issue.

Interesting, I actually didn't know that. Is it fairly easy?

[adrynalyne]

Yeah. When you select the wallpaper, it has a settings button for it. You can cycle through quite a few colors/patterns.
