Absolutely true! It should be skinnable. But, before that happens - these
images are what are hitting the press. Would certainly love to see OpenMoko
present a very sharp, bright image as others are observing, wondering if an
open source community can really go toe-to-toe with the iPhone. I recognize in
relative terms of importance, this is *not* critical.
I have to agree with amy. Interface is not that jazzy yet. It looks really
old-school. I've yet to hold moko in my hands so I can not comment on how it
feels, but it does look a bit old in the videos.
It's sort of funny the way it seems to go: first you are really exited about
something (like I was about the first ui's), and then it starts to look old.
Even before I get it in my hands.
I guess that this is due to the fact that the implementation has not been up to
speed with the photoshop drafts. And now that they are getting closer to the
point when ui would be important, there is a release of images that do not
contain that much of anything new.
BTW: its hard to be exited about kinetic scrolling when others have already
done it so well. It's a 'cool' feature, must-have, in order not to pale in
comparison.
I guess that there should be something extra on the ui. It's pretty plain as it
is. Maybe there could be animations or some other stuff that'd make the phone
come to life? Maybe for the menus and toolbars or something like in compiz?
