I just love this add-on. I use it extensively and have no major complaints. Contrary to what the last reviewer mentioned, it works really well in wide screen. You just have to play around with the default panel size settings and you can have the tiles fill up as much screen real estate you've got. I'm running it on my tiny 10" MSI Wind with a default 1024 x 768 resolution but can just as easily plug in an external 26" widescreen LCD display and run it at much higher screen res without any qualms.

My only wish is for the next version to allow the removal of the tiles/buttons borders. I have custom images set for each speed dial that I have now and it would be nice to clean up the entire page and just leave the images floating in a solid background.

Anyway, the current version is good as it is. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up for the developer of this app.
