Nobody said it couldn't be done in Qt. In fact, it might have been done in Qt.

The problem I have... if it's so easy, why wasn't it done on the N900 that supports Qt?

N9 Meego version looked far better, I am confused at the windows screen, there is a flickering and animated xbox...
I can answer this one... once you create an XBOX avatar, it's animated. The top right of that video was the People live tile, that populates with pictures of people that call you, tweet, e-mail you and will update accordingly.

and part of screen is doing something (i think playing video ) in the middle and squares around it, that is a silly layout. HTC does much better job in splitting the screens with currently playing app and showing other buttons.
To be honest, I thought the Metro UI was ultra stupid until I've been forced to use one for the last month now. To be honest, it's not half bad. In fact, it's a lot similar in some ways to the Harmattan UI in the swiping gesture - I swipe left, I'm going from Home screen into Applications. Swipe right, I'm going back to apps. Swipe up to unlock, and in some areas, swipe up for options or to close an app - only one so far.
