Hey guys. Is anyone else experiencing issues with the beta lockinfo on 5.0? (Yes, I know it's a beta and has bugs because of it).

When I unlock the device, it seems to take a long time to load the home screen. It also seemed to cause a huge drain on batter life...does anyone else notice this?

Also, it seems like Lockinfo is kinda pointless when you have ios5...I mean besides favorites/tweeting from the lockscreen, what else does it offer?
 
Battery life...I don't know.

Unlock delay...seems like that happens when I leave a lot of apps open on my 3GS.

I haven't been convinced to switch from LockInfo, yet. Calendar, Mail, SMS all there and works well with BiteSMS...even though both are in beta (there are some issues now).
 
Got Lockinfo on my iP4, no battery or lag issues here. A crashed here and there but nothing crazy.

What does it offer me on iOS5 well... i can do everything on my lock screen.

no lag or battery issues for me

its not pointless, you can still read/reply to emails, bitesms, without opening the native app for those things, also you can see you calander further out then the built in ios 5.0 notification which only shows events in the next 24 hours, like the other post says you can have items on the lock screen, you can have widgets like the ios 5 weather widget on the home screen

you can do all kinds of things, to think lock info is pointless means you have never used it to its full potential if all you did was use it for infoshade than yes the new notification centre almost replaces the infoshade but still not totally
