It just wasn't what I thought it would be. It seems cool but once you mess with it the idea isn't that great. It's hard to switch to other apps. Multitouch gestures won't work and home button was acting up.
Well I was desperate to try Quasar, and now that I finally have, I have to say I am sadly disappointed. As treyjustice said, its not quite ready for prime time.
I'm witnessing some bugs which ruins the experience for me. e.g.
The rotation buggers up sometimes.
Its crashed on me a few times already resulting in a respring, running about 3 apps in the background. Safari, Cydia and maybe a game or youtube app.
It freezes occasionally.
Some notes, its not retina and that bugs me using it on an iPad 3. Also as someone else mentioned, it doesn't feel very intuitive, especially with limited/no gesture based controlling.
I want to love this tweak and I appreciate the effort by the developer but in its current state its too unstable for me.

The latest update includes support for the retina iPad.
I really like the idea now, and yes it still needs more tweaking but it's awesome!
I leave it turned off for normal use, but it is actually extremely convienient to have when copying information from one app to another.
After using it, I can say (with the latest update) it is extremely stable and I haven't had any problems with it. It would be nice if they would incorporate gestures on the apps while they are live so the gray bar at the bottom wouldn't take up so much screen real estate-- the iPad screen isn't big enough with the "settings" bar.
Other than that, though, it's fantastic!

I wish iOS didn't have to be resprung after disabling and enabling. Would be nice to be able to turn it on and off on the fly via sbsettings.
I downloaded and installed on the same day the JB came out and it did have stability issues where apps would lock up forcing you to manually reset and/or it'll crash and force a respring.
The lastest update seems to have done "something". So far no crashes and zero lockups (I might've just jinxed myself) but knock on wood.

I downloaded the update and the first app I opened froze, Words With Friends. But after that the freezing stopped.
I'm still running into the squished-screen problem though.
