There’s a lot of options when it comes to launchers for your Android device, but the most popular options seem to be ADW and LauncherPro. Hoping to pull ahead in the launcher-race, Federico Carnales, the man behind LauncherPro, has recently added a new trick, scrollable widgets. The following widgets are available:
- People Widget – To quickly access all your contacts, or just your favorites, or a particular group. (Included in this release)
- Bookmarks Widget – Quick access to your browser’s bookmarks
- Friends Widget – Lists your friend’s status updates from Facebook and Twitter, and lets you update your own status too.
- Calendar/Agenda Widget – Shows you a calendar you can scroll through to switch months, and also lets you see your agenda for any particular day right within the widget.
- Messaging – Scroll through a list of your SMS messages or one by one. Quick links to delete messages, reply, etc.
Along with the new feature, comes a price of $2.99. Federico mentions on his website that this is the “early bird” price, so it’s probably safe to assume that it’s going to go up in the future. So if you like the look of LauncherPro and want the new features, then head over to his website and buy it.
