Best iPhone skin/theme or look-alike for Touch

I bought a Touch from Sprint a few days ago because my ATT 8125 Wizard finally broke down. I wanted to know what fellow touch users think to be the best iPhone or iPhone-like loader for the Touch.
So far, I have found:
- Gigabit iPhone Software Theme (You need to pay for this!)
- iFonz (A good but slow skin)
- PountUI (iPhone-like, but limited in functionality)
Any other suggestions fellow Touch-users?

This is a post from (Mooring) over at www.pdaphone.com
Here is another iPhone like interface. It looks relatively new and I have not tired it. There seems to be a good design for customization. There is a video of the application at: FreeStylWM.com www.whoneedsaniphone.com

Thank you tmz
Thank you tmz,
This looks awesome, and also looks like it will most-likely be the best running "skin" for ppc users who want that iPhone-feel. Downloading now..

http://www.iphonetheme4ppc.com/
Requires WAD and WA3, but easily the best theme available.

Do not want to pay for iPhone skin
I do not want to have to pay for the iPhone skin.. In order to maximize the speed of the handset, I realized that the best solution would be to find a way to edit or add an additional side to the built-in cube with the iphone icons. I have found many posts doing something similar, but haven't found one that could actually make this happen..
Any ideas?

This is the one i have on my phone and love it.........

Windows Mobile 7 in Live Mesh Commerecial

Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RY-q8k2RRI
It appears at the 0:33 mark. Compare what you see to the following photos:

What do think? Did Microsoft just give us glimpse into the next version of Windows Mobile? I'm pretty exited over this if you can't already tell.

WOW!
It's on the nike too!
Can't wait to see if they release it for the nike!

Good luck to you excalibur users, My brother owns one =]

Ditto. And I hope it's a little more spiffed than what I've seen from the SDK emulator and the "leaked" pics of the supposed first phone.

Probably to find out things about the Dash? Maybe to soak in new tech, but hay i'll say the same doesn't look impresive and i'm def not here to listen to Manson

I'm here because I believe in helping people get the most from their dash through greater information availability...that and I actually *like* some of the guys on this board.
That having been said, I'm not a fan of Microsoft who, unless there is significant competition from one or more outside sources, will *not* innovate since they know they have consumers by the balls.
I'm all for checking out Android since it's open-source. As it's about the only thing that promises major, widespread, worldwide consumer competition for Microsoft, it will hopefully light a fire under their respective asses to actually improve their stagnant PDA-phone operating system. The supposed WM7 pics and videos might be a start, but they're already way behind.
I've used smartphones since WM2002, and it really hasn't changed fundamentally since then. To use the current political language, Microsoft can only keep putting fresh lipstick on a pig for so long.

That's a dumb question...
I am here because I own a Dash and I LOVE it.
I am here because YOU asked for our opinions.
I am here because this is a GREAT group of people with a lot of knowledge and skill.
However this discussion is about WM7, which the Dash WILL NOT HAVE.
Those Youtube videos don't even show 2 seconds worth of video of the phone, what exactly are we supposed to see?
Thanks for asking, but next time if you want peoples opinions, don't always expect them to agree with yours....
Beartard, you are absolutely right, I have had a PPC since day one, and its pretty much the same today as back then..

Wow, tough crowd. I appreciate the video surfacing again, and it shows some things which we did not appreciate then:
1) Sliding panels is coming to WM Professional.
2) The live mesh integration client is pretty cool.
3) WM7 is going to look cool too.
For the people looking for change over the years, I have been using WM since 2000, and I have seen plenty of change.

New Dash aka Excalibur, aka Maple

It's been a long time coming, and it looks like HTC's finally gearing up to drop another portrait QWERTY device -- a dominant smartphone form factor that HTC has historically given surprisingly little love. Following the Excalibur (T-Mobile types know this one better as the Dash) and the 3G-capable Cavalier, CNET's Deutschland outpost has learned a bit about "Maple," and what the device lacks in beauty, it looks to make up in pure, raw, unadulterated productivity. You can't rightfully anoint it until you get your hands on it, but from a distance, this thing looks like it has one of the more usable portrait keyboards ever created, a trackball, and a cool new feature HTC is called "Inner Circle," which seems to aggregate communication with people you care about depending on the time of day and day of week. HTC had really been keen on what it's calling "people-centric communication" at MWC, so Inner Circle would certainly fall right into that -- and if you can get over the frumpy exterior, this sucker looks like a solid WinMo-based choice for the suits out there. No word on a release just yet.

Vote for the Best ever HTC (or other) Phone

As we all consider the Touch Pro2 or Diamond2 or other, what has been the best phnoe of all so far?
I've had an XDA, XDAII, Universal, Atrhena and Touch Cruise. I resurrected the Universal last week and I'd have to say that the build quality, functions and design re-impressed me.
So this gets my vote.
We can all say "yeah, if it had [insert fsvourite function] xxx would be the perfect phone, but in context which one stands out?

I am more than agree with you!
Universal from 2005 still beating some of the newest models, yeah I knoe it´s a bit big but still the best, at least for me!

Dont worry it wont happen

I too would have to agree, the Uni is by far the most "Functional" PDA yet to be be created for "Business" usage.
Yes it is slightly bulky but it is also 4 years old, and to still be holding it's own with it's dedicated fans is incredible considering how fast this market moves.
The only problem for the poll is that not that many people bought the Uni in the first place. It was very pricey on release and most people didn't desire to own one based purely on it's size.
I never regret my purchase, and must say it hs been the most reliable enjoyable and functional (for my usage) PDA I hvae ever owned and I've had quite a few..........
Cheers,
Beasty

I never owned a universal, but always wanted one. They are very good devices. Now, I need 3g, so no way I would buy a universal now.

That´s an extra point to Uni!
As you mentioned, when Uni was launched only a few carzy (Incliding me) went fast and payed a lot of $ to have it, but when time passed some other people started to think on Uni and buy it.
I can think on this as a strange behaivour... The more time passes the more people realize how good it is!
I have saw a lot of new users buying Uni nowdays.
Poll is doing great! Imagine Universal competing with 2008 great devices like Blackstone or Xperia for mention some and Uni still on the first 3 places!!
Universal: The best micro laptop/pda buissness oriented device made to this date!
Cheers to all,

The HD Blackstone has been the best for me so far...only wish it had a bigger CPU!

but wait I already voted, but when the new ones come on will i be able to vote again?

Of course mate!
I will create a yearly poll, so we all can vote again!
this was only the first poll...
Stay tuned for "The best device of the year 2009"

the kaiser has been my favorite so far, and the lack of buttons that the iphone forced the world to follow is a loss in my book. the rhodium looks slick, but i'd still have my kaiser if it was just vga

Thanks I can't wait till all the 2009 phones are out though, especially the touch pro 2, it might have the old processor and ram, but it seems almost like HTC improved everything else, 2 speakers and mics for better call quality, bigger touch screen ext.

Yeah me too!
Let´s see what other models HTC bring us on this year...snapdragon perhaps?...
Menatime let´s all vote on the poll already is created!
No need to have a second thread with same topic and with no poll!
