0 Meego Platform : A new promise in UI guidelines

MeeGo's official UI could be only that something which actually decides whether the platform grows or ends up before its birth -- we dont want a phone whose UI sucks, after all. The folks over at Nokia and Intel's little pet project have posted few screenshots of the new OS 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 , hope we get to see some along with the shining new OS , without which the OS is no more than a junk .
