Looks pretty nice. I'm guessing that's it's only for touchscreens. But I didn't see them doing much that couldn't be done with the five way pad. Maybe if we ask them nicely, they're put out a non-touchscreen version.

Read the Update!

I installed it on my motoQ, with mixed results.

The program installs and runs fine on the Q, except for a few things.

The select button doesn't work, but you use the left soft key to select. The problem with this is that the program doesn't provide any visual cues or anything, so you are left trying buttons to see what they do.


I only had one major problem. I tried the key lock, and I couldn't find a way to unlock it other than button mashing, and that just put it into regular WM5 mode.


If anyone else wants to give a try I say go, but understand that this is still a beta and definitely not ready for prime time.


UPDATE:

Upon further playing around with it. This program DOES NOT WORK! the menus are completely touch based so there's no way to do anything.

It basically said :We didn't expect smartphone users to be interested in this. We're looking now into doing a version for them.
