Excellent Very rarely write reviews but this deserves one. I went from using ICS on an ainol novo 7 elf to then installing Gingerbread and this launcher. Completely transformed the little tablet into something much more usable and useful.

Perfect Anyone with a 7" Galaxy Tab is missing out if they don't have this. Makes it feel like a tablet rather than a really big phone.

Pretty good Please add the option to choose the number of home screen. Currently it looks like it defaults to 5 only. I prefer 3 myself and I'm sure others like 7.
