Leap. Your new Finder[via], from the developers of the critically-acclaimed, but rather niche, PDF cataloging application named Yep. The beta-demo is unusable on my computer (and crashed once) but that’s because it relies on Spotlight, which is dog slow here and will hopefully improve with Leopard (and I assume they’ll also leverage Quick Look to display thumbnails faster); the interface, however, looks amazing. It doesn’t have Cover Flow, but the iPhoto-like icon view is close enough (yeah, technically, it’s probably even more functional); and what the demo video doesn’t show is that you only have to click a button to switch between search-based navigation and a regular folder hierarchy, which means you can use Leap in every context of your workflow — it would have been useless if you had to switch between Leap and the Finder (or something else) depending on how you want to browse your files.

I’ve been checking out every Finder replacement wannabe under the sun, hoping for something really good to come out, so believe me when I say: you have to check this out.
