Windows Phone Android
 
Found this at XDA :)

If you're an Android owner and want to get a flavour of Windows Phone 7 device, just hop into the Android Market, download it and then you can choose to have it replace your normal home screen / HTC Sense / MotoBLUR interface.

Lite version include:
Pin to front page tiles
remove from front page
uninstall apps
dark and lite themes
4 accent colors (Blue, Green, Red and Orange)
limited system messages (on message area at the top of the screen)
status bar with mobile signal, wifi, BT status etc.

live tiles, hubs, and replacement apps (to simulate wp7 metro) will be included in the regular and pro versions.

The lite/free version currently isn't working for me. The tiles do not show up on my Evo. But the application menu works. I've tried adjusting the settings and restarting my phone but it doesn't work. :(

lol I feel like a b00n now. Thanks for the heads up on that. And now it saddens me even more. They don't appear to be "living tiles". And the performance is overall sluggish imho.

+1, tried this out yesterday and was not impressed. Hopefully something better will come out soon. I was hoping spb would do something soon for android as well. I used a spb android theme for months on the tp2 and it was awesome.
