    Once again we have another great tweak that has been developed by Aaron Ash called SmoothBoard. Last week I talked about InfiniDock, which enabled scrolling within the Dock. Today we are treated with a similar concept, and even comes without a price tag.

    Installing this tweak will allow you to scroll through every page without it locking to each single page one at a time and having to swipe a gazillion times. OverBoard and Orbit brought us the ability to see all our pages, but this is one step further, because now you can scroll from one end to the other incredibly fast. It's so smooth its almost fun to just scroll back and forth. (on 3GS at least)

    Springboard doesn't 'lock' when scrolling. A big swipe can scroll through multiple pages instead of only one page per swipe. If you stop scrolling Springboard won't "snap" to the nearest page, it will just stay in between pages.

    There are a few minor bugs. (like springboard snapping to the nearest page when an app is opened) But it does not hinder any functionality, and you can still move icons around just fine.
    So far I haven't had any problems with it, except for the fact that I always scroll too far to the left and end up in spotlight.

    This tweak is available in Cydia & Rock for Free! Check it out and let me know what you think!

      love the concept...but it's too darn fast

      and

      when I go to arrange icons, the screen randomly jumps to another screen. only time it doesn't is if the top row of 4/5 icons is used.


      deleted. sucks because I am running 9 pages of stuff. and each page is dedicated to a particular thing

      I just decided to re-theme my phone, and came across this app. I love the idea of scrolling easily between pages without stopping. The flow is really nice...I haven't noticed the speed being a problem, but i see how being able to change the speed would be a good thing.
      My biggest complaint with it is like what someone said earlier, I couldn't rearrange my icons with smoothboard activated; the icon would remain in place and I would be kicked to the first page.
      If you added some features like scroll speed, ability to move icons around, etc. other peoples' suggestions, I'd gladly contribute for you time. Very nice work!
      I have this app working with panorama, which makes for a great side-scrolling scene.
