WARNING IPHONE HATERS... (semi-clone on board)
Details here.. http://iwindowsmobile.com/vito-mobile-shell.html
Looks like its open season on hacking this now.
If I can only get it to somehow show calendar events on a page, its a hit.
Interesting. The only thing that stil pulls the I-phone ahead in this race is the speed at which it can use thier shell. I still love my PDA more though. Thanks for the link.
Hmmm...can't wait to see some skinning for this.
*update*
DL'd the cab from the website listed. It hasn't asked for an activation code yet...found activation screen, 14-day trial.
It is fairly easy to run, doesn't seem to take a lot of memory. Very similar to iPhone icon UI, not as 'fancy' looking.
looks boring
There is definite room for improvement...not too bad for a 1st version but it's typical of Vito software.
Contacts can be set up with their own icon and can be mixed in with application icons.
I would like to see something along the lines of SPB Mobile Shell though...i.e. Clock page, calendar. Then again, I suppose that will just fatten it up and cause some memory drain like SPB already does.
I'll try it...
I'll try it for a few days.Thanks.
Looks good but why always duplicate the iPhone interface, come up with something better. The new Diamond interface is like a breath of fresh air. It lets us know there are other options out there that is also good.
the most boring thing about vito apps is how cheap they all look. ugly, ugly, ugly.
looks too generic reminds me of samsung gui
something unique would have been more eye catching!
Nice one
Cool feature, but why use it when I have this baby..
On the HTCTOUCH

Just curious but what is that?
**Update**
NM, I found this thread you were in...Is it WAD or WAD2 you're mostly using?

What was the warning for? Another dumb iPhone wan-a-be.
it's actually pretty nice... it just needs some graphical tweaks in my opinion...
Seems ok to me. Granted its similar to the iphone layout; however seems fairly simple and straightforward.
I like the semi black background without it being too black.
Everyone will have a view on this latest interface/gui. What we should remember is that there are people out ther doing an awful lot of development work to give us a better interface/more choice on the WM platform.
Constructive criticism and good points, e.g the request for skinning, is one thing. Simply lambasting the tool is not good enough.
Someone on here the other day was asking for ideas for a new UI for WM. Should we not seize on opportunities like this one presented to us?
Just my dollars worth.
WB
Winterface
I like the iPhone-like interface, and the customizeability. Aside from that, I agree that the overall apearance of SBP Mobile Shell is better.
amen! If I wanted an iPhone, I'd get a damned iPhone!!

is fine.... can you post?
I second WackyBanana.
It'd be great to have skinning sometime soon.
just my 2 cents worth, but iphone bashing is getting a bit droll, since we're all here on WM platforms anyways. You have to admit, Apple's UI's are pretty good, just really short on apps and customization.
So lets congratulate Vito and see if we can get some more customization options.
I would LOVE an option to turn off the Vito 'slide to unlock' option since I'm already using Slide2Unlock Pro 1.05...
like another person stated it looks boring! i wonder how well it will work? will it be speedy or sluggish?
Mobilityflow is going to release the new product called Touch Shell 3D as a component of Touch Commander Suite 4.0 - for Pocket PC Phones. The new product will provide you with the features similar to those of SPB Shell and the famous TouchFLO 3D installed on HTC Touch Diamond.
Touch Shell 3D features:
- Visual effects similar to those of TouchFLO 3D on HTC Touch Diamond
- Can show any third-party Today Plugins at the separate page
- Touch Pop-up Menus, Task Manager
- Compatibility with the most devices running Windows Mobile 5/6 (200 MHz CPUs, QWGA)
This product appeared soon after the release of the famous TouchFLO 3D for HTC Touch Diamond. With Touch Shell 3D you will be able to experience the ease of use similar to that of TouchFLO 3D and IPhone. You will also be able to enjoy special visual effects which will give you the impression of a three-dimensional space.
I can't wait to see this.......... I guess the Beta will be coming soon.

any visual links ?
would love to see this in action

Doesn't seem to be anything special.
Very similar to UltimateLaunch or Throttle Launcher I guess, because the video only shows today plugins in tabs but not scrolling album artwork or contact photos like TouchFlo 3D does.
thats it ????
this is way behind throttle and ultimate laucher
Lame, but hey can't fault em for trying I guess.
The clock in SPB SHEll with diamond theme have no animation,,
THIS ONE have,,So i like it very much^^

I can't tell from this poorly shot video if it's way behind or not... I did catch a glimpse of the 3d when the clock changed time.
looks great. I like how you can still use the start menu and task manager unlike SBP and some others. Thanks! Im def buying one.
Looks like MusicFlo, doesn't it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403815&highlight=musicflo
musicflo, funny noob. no its better and looks better, it has the animated clock and can handle plugins on each tab.
so lets wait a little, but it looks promising.

is that exactly what throttle launcher does with the new throuttleHTM for using flash diamondlike animation for the clock

This is out now. I like it a lot so far.

looks okay but the colour is horrible and what about the rest of the application like music and all that
Anyone got the know-how to try this? It would open up some new looks on our devices. Its arguably one of the better things in the 6.1 update.

don't think i got your point
like in ultimate launcher?
no i think he means the today screen from wm6.1 smartphones. (which is very nice)
I havent seen it on wm pro
Yes, separate it out and make it an installable cab as a today screen replacement or addition. It looks really nice, and usability is better than the original.
This should be possible since they both are based on the same OS. Just a matter of finding and extracting.. I dont have the know-how, but would love this.
I also have not seen anyone else mention this. That is why I started this thread.
I believe it has been brought up in reference to the T-Mobile Shadow today screen that can usually be found under the keyword "neo theme". I haven't seen any ports myself either and I know I would definitely use it especially if it was the neo theme from the shadow. I would love to install the "Freddy Shadow Neo Black Theme". My daughter had a shadow and damn that theme was nice.
Omg. Yes. I've been looking for a port of it too. I'm so jealous. It looks really nice. But then again, it might look weird since smartphone screens are much smaller.
well it'd be really neat, but since we have rectangle screens it'd be very different for us to have something like that
If anyone is wondering about what this is, or more, here is a blog from one of the WM developers who had a hand in creating this:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2008/06/03/customizing-the-sliding-panel-homescreen.aspx
Maybe something like this could be created using TodayLife, I think that's the one I'm thinking of.

Actually, neo is different , thats what shadows used before 6.1. The sliding panels are great to use, but they have lots of limits too. If you duplicate them with another program like TodayLife, then you would have much more room to configure. And you can't add plugins into sliding panels, you can only manipulate the ones included.
Hacking and Developing Forum
Maybe the Eten users benefit frm this? As Diamond users we have 3D already bundled. Or is this much faster in Diamond? Tried?
Some people switch to SPB shell cause they dont like how slow TF3D is. this is a little faster. Personally I like 3D. I just saw it in there forums and thought Id post it over here. plus i think they are almost done with landscape
This is a cool way to rotate your screen

it has been discussed on the forum before, but no one actually ported it or even posted a cab.....
Any idea how to get this on our TP2..... this would be really great...
*BUMP*....
that looks pretty cool I'd also like to see soething like this for our Rhodium if possible?
Cool! I want to see that also!
Pretty Cool. I was worried because the first two animation were very slow. The following ones looked good.
Anyone know of a .cab for this?
This is a cool effect wouldn't mind getting that for my TP2.
can anyone provide the .cab?
nice
that's pretty cool i would like to have it on my tp2 as well.
Same here. Same here.
Would love to try that out on my TP2.
I definitely would like something like that on my Tilt 2!
i need this like a junky needs a fixs
Know this is purly a cosmetic thing, but I would like this too. a lot better than the boring plain switch. Would love it on my TP2, as well.
Yea I'd have to agree 1000% that this is definitely bad ass!! It makes for real nice eye candy and cool transitions to say the least!! I wonder if this is actually something that can be ported over or made into a cab to be installed to our touch pro 2's?? It's funny to see this thread b/c I've always wondered about this since seeing it on the Omnia way back when it was released so im really surprised the port of that software hasn't made it over to XDA!!?!?! Perhaps it can't??? Let's hope I'm wrong and this comes to fruition
bump bump bump it up!
Bump Bump.......
yeaaaaaaaaaa lol lets get this ported baby, I wish I knew how or even had the phone to lend a hand with this!! I mean ive seen more complicated things ported to our phones like manila aka tf3d which had to be one of the hardest things and also the xperia panels to name a few!
