Android wasn't mimicking iOS by the way. A grid of icons for links and applications has been a staple UI component of computers and phones for well over a decade.
iOS goes for pure shortcuts, WP7 goes for pure widgets, and Android has a mix of both. That being said, WP7's implementation of a widget home screen / phone "desktop" is quite nicely done. I agree with you that this upcoming update is impressive to say the least.
- destraynor 16y agoRe: Android mimicking iPhone, okay I'll concede a grid of icons had been done before iOs, if you concede that Android clearly took a lot of guidance from precisely how iOS did it.
- Pewpewarrows 16y agoOh most definitely.
