No they shouldn't have gone with that one, I like the option to choose where I want my shortcuts, seems like google really wanted to stress that this was an open platform, and what better way to do that while letting users set up the background, icons, ring tones, picture frame, and much much more!

Interesting - one of these videos (the open GL one) appeared on YouTube in February titled 'Android UI looks far better than the iPhone' (below). I think it annoyed a lot of people because it was a simulation. All the screens on the Tat website look very nice though.

Tat should release a version of this so that we can put it on our Androids, if we so choose
