This article contains unofficial information.

Members of HTCPedia's dev team were able to take some pictures of a HTC Espresso test dump running on the HTC Hero , showing off the Rosie UI. As we previously reported, the Espresso is similar to the GSM edition of the Hero except with a landscape sliding QWERTY keyboard. Have you ever seen an 'Airplane Mode' page look so good? Some of the early opinion on HTCPedia's forum is that the design too closely resembles that of the iPhone. What do you think?

no its not replacing the sense. thats an overlay for the winmo & andrd OS. this is a modification to the basic brew os that runs on a lot of phones. sprints instinct line for ex. but it has its own feel. honestly if you do and 4 by 5 or 4 by 6 lay out its going to look like an iphone

I prefer sense UI, wouldn't like this to replace my htc hero's proprietary UI

Is this going to be replacing the Sense UI?

I thought it looked like the iPhone..In fact, at first glance I thought it was the iPhone. I don't like the transparent boarder around the icons. I hope that goes on the final release.
