I was fairly impressed by the Windows 8 preview... that being said I kinda wish they hadn't gone with a WP7/metro theme all along the whole thing... They did kind of steal the swipe from sides thing of the Playbook as well, even if it is a great thing to use.

Use Linux, be free.
Stop beeing anal slave of microsoft =)

waiting for new windows 8

If they try to put windows 8 on one of their phones it would blow up.

They already have that in the form of WindowsPhone7. If anything it's more like they're putting WP7 on PC's and tablets.

They didn't steal it. They just borrow it.

Sentio UI

Check this out, looks very cool.

Looks good but it's vaporware right now.
True....but it does look promising.
I get a windows 7 phone vibe from that UI
but I wouldn't mind seeing more.
Looks nice! I got a windows vibe from it as well, but its much better because its on top of android!
Is this active? The interface looks very good! Could somebody post a link for more info?
Interesting... the link at the end of the video goes to a one page website with a single image. Is this real?
Slick clean UI. Want more of this thinking on android... yeah, a little WP7 ish... still. Something new and refreshing. If this is ported/easily available to us, will definitely give this a run. I love text instead of icons... am using Generation X's theme

They need to get the person who did the wp central app to make one for xda. That app is fantastic.
I don't mind supporting xda but this app is not that good. Its slow, navigating through forums is a pain. I like the concept and see the potential for a faster mango supported app. Im sure they are working on it

Hope that a Mango version is in the works but unfortunately I doubt it as there hasn't been any support for this since it was made available. Great potential but maybe just too hard to maintain. Hope I'm wrong.

Is it possible to have both ios and android on the infuse?

It is likely possible, but I didn't find anything from a quick G search

No. Porting closed-source operating systems (especially iOS) to other devices is impossible unless the target device is almost identical.
Android can be ported to non-native devices in some cases, but that's because the majority of Android is open source.
I think I read somewhere about an apple developer doing this on an andriod device as a side project but he had source code and it took him a year.
there are vids of android devices running ios but I'm pretty sure it is heavily modified android with a very custom launcher to look like the apple search screen. it may be real but is not available and was probably done with leaked sources if it is. but it is probably either an extensive android mod or the guts of an iphone placed inside a different shell.
Putting ios on an Android device is like choosing ihop over waffle house. You just don't do it. Although ihop does have some tasty omelettes.

the last time I was in a state with a waffle house the white people wouldn't go there. but I agree cleanlyness aside the food was better and service was faster than huddle house (where the white people ate) there was no ihop though. actually I've never been in an ihop.
I think it's dumb but I saw I post with a video having ios on android phone search the fourm u will find it

There is a direct correlation between the number of letters lit in a Waffle House sign and the quality of the food/service/cleanlyness of the inside.
More than 3 letters out and I'm not stopping.

iPhone 5

I have decided that when the REAL iPhone 5 debuts, im going to iOS, its more solid than Android... sure with android there are a variety but I would rather have one phone that can upgrade at the same time others of its kind upgrade instead of trying to hassle to *root* a phone n do all that other crap and risk bricking it just to stay current, well do that or buy another phone, its ridiculous actually.... and I saw a similar post to this one and that guy was right, Google has customization yes but when it comes down to it, it pains me to say but google is crap compared to apple as far as being current and stuff u knw? So whenever the iphone 5 drops I will not deal with android anymore I just can't tolerate this mess anymore

Maybe for some... but the annoying thing for most people is the question of why the OP decided to post this. Why does the OP feel that he has to justify himself to us?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
I agree that the iOS has its good points. But for full functionality of your own phone you have to jailbreak it. How is that different than rooting your android? I have had an iPhone 3Gs and 4 and neither of them have come close to offering me all that I can have and do with my Infuse. And guess what that's my opinion, it works for me and my needs. Am I putting the iPhones down? Not really, if you want to drive an off the showroom floor mid grade model that comes with a stock package that is as you buy it then go for it. Personally I prefer to know how my device works at its core as well as be able to modify that as I see fit, but again that's me. I will not buy another iOS device until they allow the freedom I have with my android. I own both Mac and Win machines and an Ubuntu and a Slackware machine so I'm not pro or anti apple I get a device that fits my needs. If you need an iPhone go for it but what's the point of spreading negativity in a forum where the iPhone is not the focus.

WebOS on Droid Charge

With the announcement of webOS moving to a open source platform, am I the only one wishing for a port of webOS to the Charges' hardware? Sure its not the most powerful phone or neither does it have the strongest developer base, but I'm still hoping for it one day. This is coming from a person who had a Palm Pre Plus prior to my D'Charge, so therefore I'm very familiar with the way webOS works and I still today miss it the fluidity of the platform. So let me know, am I alone?
In theory, I suppose it could be done, as WebOS is also Linux based. However, it would take a LOT of work-I think the time put into such a project would not equal the number of people who would want to use it.

In all honesty I would like to see ICS before I would like to see WebOS, but I feel like these ports would be coming from different teams. From one corner their will be developers working to get ICS to all non-nexus devices and in the other corner their will be people working to get WebOS on android devices and once its done here it will be picked up by other developers and tweaked to work on the particular device they're developing for.
