          It is me the only one who sees that it's a fake?? We just need to see that UI and a Windows Phone device at the same time… Those tiles look like so shabby and ugly.

                  i think we can safely say it's a launcher, not that it needed all these posts to tell us, i'd have been happy with 2 or 3 for confirmation.

                          It's android with a Skinned launcher... look at the icons, they are different from WP7.

                                        This is a launcher, look at the "Audio" tab, in the real WP7 it's called "Music & Videos" and has the Zune logo. And the "Browser" tab, it's called Internet Explorer. No real thing here, just a launcher.
