Windows envy on the iphone?

I guess the grass really isn't green on either side of the fence. With all the iphone copying on PPC phones, it's nice to see some windows flare being added to the iphone.

Though everyone would like to see this.

I saw that this morning. I was laughing at it then, and I'm still laughing at it now. Still, it does look pretty good...

not any worse than the 100 times as much iphone envy you see in WM forums with the themes, slide to this and that, music player, slider, etc etc. iphone envy runs much more rampid than this little icon pack

if an operating system gui is fun, effective and efficient, i see no reason not to copy it.

Now this is just me being real here
once you get past the new feel of the iphone (the themes, slide 2 unlock and application loading) you really get bored with it fast and many try different themes to give new life to the iphone or some new tweak that people enjoy. So to see a theme much like the wisbar advanced vista theme isn't a huge surprise to me at all. I did think that someone was able to finally dual boot a windows edition on the iphone and winmo dual boot. Now that would be a great thing for the iphone personally.
But in essence this doesn't surprise me in the least
