Thanks for the update, I am not running ICS so the market didn't show it on my device..

[Ann154]

It should show up if it was searched for it in a browser.

[Wildman]

Yes I realized that once you posted the links.  I seen  the post while I was on my device so I didn't think of the browser version..

How does it compare to ADW launcher in your opinion.

[Ann154]

I haven't had a chance to try either Launcher yet.

[Wildman]

From what I see, it isn't comparable at the moment but if you want a costume launcher but still keep features from the original UI I think this would catch your flavor..  But the developer is still adding features so I see most or all features from ADW coming..

Its a great launcher. Been using it since the beta and decided to buy it to show support for the Devs. If you are not planning on rooting your phone or you do Nova launcher is the best out right now. You can customize just about anything. download the free version and give it a try. You can always go back to stock launcher. I can't speak about ADW and not sure i ever will.

This launcher gets a ton of hype and I can't figure out why.

It's no better than any other 3rd party launcher.

I prefer go launcher if only because it has a menu button and I don't have to waste a dock slot for the settings menu or leave an icon on my homescreen.

Go launcher also has gestures for the dock icons, you can alter the grid size, widget size, does wallpaper and dock loops, and it has a swipe up/down of the screen to launch 2 additional apps.
