Those playing w/AWD Launcher, give Launcher Pro a shot (beta in the market) - faster, smoother, sense rebound, and updates coming to add custom icons in the dock (currently fixed) and landscape auto-rotate...check it out. I've switched from Helix/AWD and am not looking back....
I just downloaded launcher pro and I am amazed how snappy it is. Hands down best launcher to date. Once ability to add custom icons in dock is added I will be a very happy camper.
