i remember the last time i was involved in a thread discussing "have we seen all of maemo 5 ui or is there more to come?", my remark that there simply has to be more based on technical information we have was met with some hostility later. (along the lines of "how dare you not be impresssed? you're not even a developer")

nice to read your post, peter.

peter, i beg you never show us anything that remotely resembles an apple.

about the comparison: i could still be fooled by your information strategy, but what seems to be obvious is that maemo5 - no matter what exactly it looks like - is a step away from the desktop feeling of current and prior maemo versions. (this impression is based more on the HIG than on any code.) moblin otoh looks very much like a full-blown desktop, the only difference being a home screen that you may like or not.this is what i find appealing about moblin, not any cosmetics that we haven't seen yet on maemo. (i think they even have "cancel"-buttons over at intel's ...)
