@Angus - Same here... though i have shell 3.0 installed on my device right now, i barely start it... but i'll definitely be using the panel once it is out.

Just a comment...
You are talking about a panel, but it's intergrated with de windows panel. If you use the panelbutton, press the one in de left upper corner and you are in sbp shell...
It's really the best I have ever seen. I only use this one. With the update it's working almost perfect.
bye bye
