i just bought the plus version for 3 bucks but what else can i do now that i couldn't do before with regular pro?

only thing I found was resizing widgets lol.
 
Facebook, bookmark, people, and calendar widgets. Longpress to add a widget and select Launcher Pro to view the available LPP widgets.
 
i just saw that as well :D
when i was buying it it said something about sorting my app drawer to most used apps instead of alphabetically but it's still normal :/
 
You also get more Swipe options from the dockbar. ie... you can add a Bookmarks popup to your web browser shortcut, Last used apps to your App Drawer shortcut, show missed calls, and display a popup of your latest SMS message.
 
edit: NVM. I thought it meant in the app drawer. I have the swipe settting for recent apps set.

I have the free version and it's incredibly annoying to get the nag screen for the full version (with widget resizing) every time I accidentally leave my finger on a widget too long. Is the resizing dialog that the full version displays under those circumstances any less of a pain to dismiss? I might buy it if so. I would definitely buy it if there were a way to disable that.

You don't get nagged anymore once you get the paid version :)

It's my understanding that you get a widget resizing dialog that can't be disabled in settings, though. Seems like that might be just as bad, considering how often I don't lift my finger from the widget in time when I'm trying to do something else.

It's two taps ("back" and "no thanks") to get out of accidentally highlighting a widget in the free version. How many taps for the paid one? I figure one would be an improvement, but if it's two, I might as well have the nag screen.

One tap in the paid one. Dropping a widget back in the same place you picked it up from highlights it, pressing the back button cancels the resizing.

Also I can't believe no one's mentioned the pop-ups. There are 4 swipe popups which can be added to show missed calls, new text messages, browser bookmarks and your 12 most recently used apps.

I love the newly added recently used one.

Edit: I should probably not skip a few posts while reading threads!

Good for you. Buying the Plus version now supposedly also guarantees you'll have the full version when Fede completes the rewrite he is doing, which hopefully will be available in a few months.
