MeeGo's official user
interface guidelines could easily end up determining whether the
platform sinks or swims -- no one wants a phone whose UI looks like
junk, after all. The minions at Nokia and Intel's little pet project
have posted new OS shots as examples of how to properly implement the
interface in third-party apps, and we've got to admit -- things are
looking a lot cleaner, prettier, and generally more modern than the
first round of pictures we saw back in June,
thanks in part to a demonstration of the platform's comprehensive
theming capability that can totally revamp how UI elements look. We're
definitely seeing shades of webOS in the task switcher (pictured above), but then again, Nokia's no stranger
to borrowing ideas it likes. That's all well and good as long as it
makes for a great platform... and obviously, we'd need some hardware to
do that. O N9, where art thou?
