After a long, hard day of battling the soulless minions of orthodoxy,
I came home just in time to see that digivell@my-deja.com had written:

>Digivello has just released GoBar 1.8, an innovative new launcher
>replacement! GoBar gives your Palm the look and feel of a desktop

Judging only by the screen shot at palmgear.com, GoBar appears to
confirm the general opinion that the Windows interface isn't suited
for a palm device. There simply isn't enough screen real estate. 

I think that the best launcher is Launcher III. Just organize your
apps into sensible tabbed categories and you're never more than two or
three (at most) clicks away from your stuff.
