An elegant looking UI. Love the G-Alarm...and planning on giving G-Weather a good run as well.

As for Infinity...couple of major concerns for UI that I implement...
memory issue...how much RAM usage will Inifinity require? Especially for any animations/transitions...I was not a fan of the 2.5 Sense full screen weather running on my TouchPro2 (Rhodium) I understand it was designed for a device with much higher specs...but having a slowed down effect really is a drag.

I'm also a fan of "quick links" and calendar event reminders directly from the home screen...basically the less action (swipe, press, etc) to get to useful information the better.

Would gladly pay for the full version of the app. But am definitely interested in your first beta...or even an alpha.

I'm running a custom 6.5 ROM on a CDMA Rhodium (Sprint TouchPro2)

thanks!!!

As far as I have experienced current ageye's applications are very good looking while still being able to keep the UI responsive without any graphical acceleration. This is why I am very interested is this new project :D I also like the managed extensibility(e.g. C#) :D very neat!

I was wondering how far is the development of this project. Is it still at the drawing board or are you guys moving towards a (public) beta release soon? Also can you tell me if it will support qvga initially?


All resolution might be supported 8-)

Is there any updates on a release date, even for a beta? I mean the idea is great, but I want some solid information on progress, changelogs with versions etc.

The screenshots are really looking promising.
Now here are my feature requests:

1. An option to show the windows taskbar instead of the programs one would be nice. I just don't like it if the taskbar changes every time I start a program. I prefer to have always the same taskbar.

2. It would be nice if the shell would support the PNG icons of the WM6.5 start menu.
(and of course it would be nice if all your other apps would include these new icons ;-)

Just signed up to register my interest; am really looking forward to getting my hands on this! My wishlist points;

1. this sounds daft but please test it property and get lots of feedback as that will help usability/UX and performance/stability (I know that seems obvious but others have failed here!)
2. as stated already- integration with social networking platforms. I wouldn't be a big user of this, I only use twitter myself, but SBP/Pre/Maemo/Motoblur.. it seems to be quite a trend, I think you need this!
3. (this is ambitious!) Any chance you could sort out multitasking for us?! Its probably my main usability gripe of WM- both WebOS and Maemo have clearly seen the potential here and sorted it out. I havent seen an intuitive, seamless way of moving between apps on WM just yet, I think you could bring something unique and potentially quite important to the table by addressing this.

Just my two cents :)

Best of luck with the xmas shopping. If you want to give us folks a gift, a preview or a few more screenshots would go down well i'm sure :D (sorry, cheap hint but I couldn't resist!)

S/He may be right about this being a trend but if it will be integrated, please make it an option not to have it displayed. I do use twitter but I am not an addict so I don't want it on my home screen but use a dedicated twitter app instead, which I load only once in a while. And I'd definitely prefer if the modules for this (and other optional gadgets) are only loaded when indeed needed.
Thanks.

Nice screens! looking good :D I like the build-in sms implementation :) Do you also have this for email?
