Only on a clunky home screen

The only home screen that the plugin works with is the Windows Default with HUGE, space-gobbling icons and little room left for anything else you might want on your phone's screen.

Unfortunately, I'd rather lauch my browser and go from there. Good idea, but horribly implemented.
