Re: First screenshots of MeeGo mobile UX!
 
most interesting thing about maemo UI is it looks like a PC UI and when you start working with it, you realize it has so much to offer that no smartphone OS has ever offered. i realy like maemo's UI sepecially menu bar (or the taskbar as i call it) and 4 desktops which i can everything from icons to widgets in it. and one other nice feature is that i can change icons and widgets positions to anywhere i like. if meego's UI is like these pictures then i think i'm going to stick with maemo. unless nokia use harmattan UX in their meego devices.

This is good stuff. I hope to see most elements in the GUI positionable by style sheets or similar such as Maemo with Conversations. I hope Meego will go further than Maemo, for example, in that we can set the position of elements in areas such as the call handling screen so we could reposition the answer/reject buttons ourselves through theming without needing to plead via bug fix/feature request.

MeeGo is expected to have a strenght in multitasking.

msa, after 495 posts in this forum you can do better than this. :) Please let's keep certain level of posts at least in this MeeGo / Harmattan forum.

Added another point that was creating some confusion in this thread:

- MeeGo is by definition device neutral. Don't make big conclusions about the sizes and proportions of MeeGo screenshots since vendors have the freedom to design products with different display resolutions.

Re: First screenshots of MeeGo mobile UX!
 
are these screenshot real screenshot (of existing devel release) or just mockups ?

because i just went to meego's gitorious and 'Handheld UX' is still empty ....

so is intel developping the handset ui in his secret workshop or are these screenshot in fact just mockups ?

and is the 1.0 release of meego (in May) going to have this ui ??? so a functionnal ui i mean ?

i would love more polishing (rounded square but not too much, just like Matrix theme for maemo 5) and more usable top panel (with dashboard button and 2 lines of tray icons, and clock not centered....). but i love dark themes with monochrome icons.

i like particulary the photo album ui ....

i hope the contact managment being at least as good as maemo 5 one that i found almost perfect ....

and i want all of that in pure Qt4.6/C++ obviously !


looks promising so stay tuned !!

What I really like about these developments is that it brings the "desktop" experience closer to mobile devices.

I think this UI looks really clean, understated and seems like it could make better use of the screen (freeing up space by what looks like halving the top bar.)

Hopefully we'll see some shots of the notification system and so on.

The 'lifestream' looks like it could do with a little work, but other than that, I'm quite happy with it.

The netbook UX was not as appealing, it is just the moblin UI :(

Is the development of the MeeGo UI for the n900 being developed behind "closed doors?"
