They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Steve Jobs even quoted Picasso when he said “good artists copy, great artists steal.”
You can change the way your Android-powered smartphone or table looks by changing the wallpaper, or if you want even more customization you can install a custom launcher and matching apps.
Such is the case with Skydroid, a Windows 8 Metro UI-inspired launcher and app suite that should be available in the next few months. This suite will likely have about twenty similarly themed apps:
1) Dialer
2) SMS
3) Email
4) Calendar
5) People with IM and Social
6) Calculator
7) Player
Gallery
9) Camera
10) Browser
11) Notes
12) Stock + Currency converter
13) Meteo
14) Alarm
15) News
16) File manager
17) Settings
18) Launcher
So if you love your Android, but like the Windows 8 Metro UI, this Spring you’ll be able to have the best of both worlds!
