hi matthias,

the only problem i had with swhx was the thing you already mentioned: not
being able to create one deployable exe-file and not being able to 
change the
icon of it...
but apart from that creating an app with swhx is really easy and i hope they
are going to implement a solution for this sooon ;)

in the meantime i stick to the sw3-version but i think it is worth 
mentioning
that the step to using swhx isn't that big; your description might scare 
some
developers away from swhx therefore i thought it would be good to mention ;)

let's hope we hear some news from swhx in the future; cause not everyone
will rely on air... *g*

just my 2cents!

henrik
