Apple probably patented the "swipe in the same direction as you would in the physical world" gesture. If I were kidding, that would be funny. But I'm probably right. Sigh.

I can't wait to try it out on the 1st

I wonder how much memory it uses.

Not sure but in the youtube thread, one of the devs says that it has been tested on

"an i-mate K-Jam.
TI OMAP850 @ 195MHz
240x320px"

and

"on a dodgey old iPaq running WM2003 with no drop in performance."

Either way this seems like the beginning of a cool project. I will be interested in how the initial release goes and how it evolves over time.

Wow, it looks amazing...hopefully it doesn't hog up the resources, looks nice.

Looks interesting. Hopefully I won't be too hungover to play with it...

Should be fun to play with. I hope you can change the theme but even without that in the initial release, it looks to be a nice, smooth shell that will work great with touch-screen devices. I sometimes wonder why small teams like this can put out such great software while the official software is so clunky. Maybe that is one goal in putting this out for free: it's a resume!
