SGS2 + CM9: Apex Launcher

Decided to give Apex Launcher a try, after months of sticking Trebuchet (default in CM9). Liking it so far. It's smooth, and offers plenty of neat features, such as "Lock desktop". I sometimes move stuff around unintentionally. Still yet to explore it fully. Also, this voting poll here helped me in choosing between Apex and Nova :P
