I've been using it through out the day, and I have to say I'm impressed. Finding things is a lot quicker, and you basically only need a few clicks to find what you. I also like the two pane style, and the drag-and-drop between them. Very nice. I will watch this application closly. I don’t have any problems with the finder, but this is a very cool application.

I've been using it for a while and it satisfies all my file managing needs. The UI needs a bit polishing though. :) This app is so neat!

I could not believe my eyes how much faster than Transmit when moving a lot of small files to SFTP which I do a lot. I think the best thing about ForkLift is its speed.

Look under Preferences > Shortcuts. @Steven Owens: ForkLift is written in Cocoa, so it looks like any Mac app out there, unlike Thunderbird/Firefox which are both written in XUL (I think). @Andrew: Agreed. @Viktor Szathmary: It’s possible to change the key bindings in ForkLift.

This is the same reason I use Mail and Safari instead of Thunderbird and Firefox. While I like Forklift, I don’t see it replacing finder for me simply because the integration is not as good.

ForkLift is probably the best implementation of this on the Mac today. Now only if ForkLift adhered more to the Orthodox File Manager (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_file_manager) standard in key-bindings (F3 view, F4 edit, F5 copy, etc), old-school folks, like myself, who have grown up with these key bindings wired into their cerebellum, would be happy to use this product.

But if it's cheaper than Transmit + AppZapper combined, it will be a sweet deal. @zozi: Yep, it does look serious. @kugel: No word yet.
