I, too, use Handshake exclusively on my A3000. The only slight problem
with it (and I've noticed this on plenty of programs that haven't
officially been 'converted' for 2.0 compatibility) is that the window it
opens on the Workbench screen expects to be using Topaz-8 as the screen
font. I have, of course, customized my Workbench to be using Helvetica
at a different point size. The window is a bit munged, but totally readable. 

Only a slight annoyance.
