HTC Windows Mobile interface gets hacked into a thing of beauty

Although HTC has done wonders papering over the considerable cracks of supreme fugliness to be found in the UI of Microsoft’s Windows Mobile, it’s still not something that we feel much love for.

Thanks to the techie guys at CookieMonster, HTC’s Sense2.5 interface has been turbo charged into something that would make an iPhone user swoon with desire, offering a hugely customisable interface, served up in wonderfully slick graphics.

Move it, drag it, any way you want it

You can alter just about anything that takes your fancy onscreen, shunting apps, weather updates, expandable appointment lists, mail notifications and more around the home screen. And it looks great too.
