I’ve had QuickLaunch since it’s early testing for the Curve 8900 and it’s definitely one of my most used applications.

Right now it’s only available for the Pearl 8100 series, Curve 8300 and 8900 series, Bold 9000 and Storm 9500 series, but NikkiSoft plans to make it available to the 8800 series and the Tour 9630!

QuickLaunch is available in the store for $4.99.
