It’s testament to how deeply the iPhone has got under people’s skins that there are so many ‘tribute’ skins, mods and hacks out there, designed to make your humble handset look like Apple’s finest. Windows Mobile seems to be particularly afflicted/blessed - most likely due to the proliferation of touchscreens, although expect that to change if Nokia ever roll out their Touch UI.
iFonz is a pretty decent stab at the form - it’s a well-written bit of freeware for Windows Mobile that smoothly animates an iPhone-esque interface that looks pretty convincing -until you actually open an app and return to uglytown with a bump.
Here is a short video of iFonz in action (caution, video may cause neck strain) and full marks to me for finishing this post without any reference to Happy Days.
iFonz is a very good stab to animate the iPhone-eque interface. But I disagree with the last statement - “until you actually open an app and return to ugly town with a bump”. Many app are available that are not ugly to open- Pocket Informant as the contact button, SV2 for the photo viewer button, CM0.19 for contacts button, Free Notes for the notes button, WorldMate for the clock button, and Weather Watcher for the Weather button.
I have tested all these programs and work fine with WM. So stop saying programs under WM are ugly. A lot of developers are developing nice software for it.
