The task switcher appears for a brief moment and it indeed looks a lot like the one described in the banana document on the meego wiki.

you're right...
both interfaces are coming from Nokia, but the one we're seeing is not the MeeGo handset UI.

The one from MeeGo will be far superior.

(Hint: did you see any 3D HW accelerated graphics in the video? Nope. How it comes then, that MeeGo requires 3D HW acceleration?)
its not symbian
3d HW Accelerated GFX is moot point b/c even symbian 3 as 3D HWA interface its how the Ui runs at 60 frames a second.
by you reasoning it would the os in video is neither of them.
if you install meego touch ui widget set from devel its obvious its meego btw the meego widget set got an update today

I too do believe it to be meego, as its way different from the current symbian and I cant see symbian 4 being massively different to symbian 3.

But I am happy to wait and find out for real soon enough!

Off-Topic, but S^4 is massively different from S^3 in UX/UI.

Probally not massively different put S^4 is definitely the milestone(pun not intended) after the UI being build on Qt.
I would believe that MeeGo and S^4 will have similarities, but for now i think this is Meego too.

Thought who knows maybe this was just one video showing one UI proposal to audience to see what they think about it early 2009?

Here's one pic of the S^4 shown July.

Can you explain how you can be so sure? It looks pretty much like MeeGo to me.

Maybe because Apple only release one phone a year, while Nokia cater to a broad range of customers and consequently have to manage the release of multiple phones each year. In addition, Nokia are currently still developing the new software for their phones whereas Apple have the luxury of simply tweaking the OS they first released 3 years ago after God knows how many years of development in secret.

That's exactly what they have done with the N8, and what you just criticised them for doing in your opening sentence... you can't have your cake and eat it.

I actually think it's more likely it is Harmattan's UI, built on Maemo 6, which is derived from MeeGo's compatibility layer.

The Harmattan UI was going to use the MeeGo Handset UX, so watching the video I think this is what they are doing with it.
