There have been some articles on the net about “the new springboard to use on the iPhone/iTouch”…..
Well – it is something I got last night.
First; you need a “jailbreaked” iPhone…..
and the via the Cydia store you can search and buy PogoPlank (1.99Usd).

I have to say; a real nice kind of springboard. Be aware; you are not just installing a new theme – this real works like a new springboard.

After installing this; you only have one screen left…… a kind of spinning wheel on the left – and when you click one of the icons/category – it will show you the apps you did put “underneath this icon/category”. As you can see in the picture – it is a nice and clean desktop.
Nice part is; people are already making all kinds of themes – which you can use on PogoPlank….. and there are already some real nice ones !!
It really does work…. BUT – as it is new => there are some “hick ups” in this little app.

1. your search (Spotlight) will disappear – so – clicking twice on the homebutton will only show you the keyboard -> but no seach!!
   I really think that is an awfull thing – as I do use the Spotlight very often…. a quick search on a name to call – or a song to play.
2. After you did put apps underneath the icon/category – you will not be able to “just change the order”…. nope -> the first app you did select, will be the first one in order.
   So, be carefully with picking the apps – maybe first write down the order you would like the apps in.
3. a little hick up; but it does irritate me – every time when you go into the app of PogoPlank (even to just look around) and go back to the springboard, it will do a kind of respring; and it will bring you back (after a couple of seconds) to the unlock screen….. Really irritating – while sometimes I didn’t change anything….!!

Maybe to other little things; I would like the wheel to spin a little more smoothly.

But even with all these little problems; I really do like PogoPlank and surely worth the 1.99Usd
