Regarding all the questions about color choices, dialog boxes, and over all "store front" issues... Has a theme maker been released yet?

Having been involved at this level of the SDK for a number of cell phone models it has been my experience that the colors used in the SDK are almost never used in the as shipped product, at times quite a few widgets seen in the SDK never make it to production, and buttons, dialog boxes, and icons are seldom finalized until a theme maker has made the rounds so that tweaks can be made.

The amazing thing here is that we are all privy to, and can provide meaningful input based on an Alpha SDK provided by the dang manufacturer and not leaked or stolen by a some character/hacker months after it is relevant to anyone.

This level of involvement with the eventual users of this device by Nokia is a new approach by any major manufacturer and I enjoy watching it develop and wish all a great success.
