CrackBerry has acquired an internal email
from RIM, which shows off the UI of their next generation OS, the
BlackBerry 10. The hardware in the pictures below might be current the
current 9860 but the OS is all new.
In this picture we can see the new homescreen, which is quite a bit different from the one we saw before.
You can see large widgets on the screen that remind you of the live
tiles in Windows Phone. And they are not static either and you can see
information like weather, call information, album art and current
location on a map on the respective widgets. There is also a new bar at
the bottom that vaguely reminds us a bit of Nokia's Belle OS.
Moving on, we have the application drawer here. Looking at the
screenshot it's hard to say which direction it scrolls in. We can't find
the usual tabs at the top of the drawer as in the current OS 7 either,
so maybe RIM has gone for a single, long list. We can see new icons, as
well as a folder that you can use to put icons in. It's unclear how you
invoke this application drawer from the homescreen.
Overall, the new BlackBerry 10 is looking quite promising.
Unfortunately, there will be quite a wait before we could actually get
our hands on it.
