\"Matias<\/a>You might have heard us (erm, OK, me) gush on occasion about certain aspects of Palm’s webOS user interface<\/a>. Now let us (erm, me again) gush a little about Matia Duarte, who has left Palm and is now User Experience Director for Android. And he’s a friendly face among the Android leadership, having worked on the Sidekick with Andy Rubin when they were both still with Danger.<\/p>\n

Some of you prefer the stock Android UI<\/a>; others prefer Sense<\/a> or (gasp!) Motoblur and TouchWiz. But we’d love to see the stock Android UI revamped.<\/p>\n
