And neither one of you guys has had trouble with information not displaying properly (battery life, weather, etc.)? I've been reading reviews, and there seem to be a great deal of complaints in this regard. Also others having even more lag when using it to unlock their device.
I don't mind spending $.99 on this app, as long as it does what it says it does.

Great app. Thanks. 
Still has lag when you are unlocking into the camera application, but greatly improved over stock.
*edit*
spoke too soon. It unlocks if I press the hardware buttons (even if the settings are only set for the slider).
Sometimes, it also loads up the original lockscreen when I unlock, and the widgetlocker screen 2-3 seconds later. Anyone else have this problem?

Well I don't have a battery life widget or weather widget (other than Beautiful Home) on it, so I wouldn't know. I have a music widget, messages widget, and To Do widget. They all work just fine. I'm not getting any lag. The unlock is smooth for me. For others? Well... I can't do anything about that. If you don't like it, you can always just get a refund. For me, $.99 is worth it. One less item from the $.99 store

I've been using it for a few weeks, first on my Droid and now on my Droid X. I love it, well worth the money.
One of the best and most overlooked features is there is an option to change the phone to vibrate instead of silent when you slide to the right. Should be standard, but it isn't.
Combine WidgetLocker with CalWidget and WeatherBug Elite and you have the perfect lockscreen.
This is one of my favorite apps by far and well worth the money!!

I have the same problem and it's really annoying. WidgetLocker is LAGGY.

i thought it was $1.99? I've had it on mine for a couple days now and love it. No lag, run "batteryleft" "BeautifulWidgets" and the MotoMessanger widget on it and they all seem to be right for me...
my .02, it was worth my 199 cents

$0.99 was the introductory price, now it's $1.99 on the market.
If you have an X, the Home button wakes the phone. I find that a fine solution. Does that not suffice for you?

The home button works as it should but you'd think the option that allows pressing any button to wake the phone would work also. Don't you agree?
