Now this is something you don't see everyday. Creator Wyndwarrior over at ModMyi forums has posted a public beta for his new theme. It is called OS7 and the theme is distributed in a pretty cool way. You have to have the app "BackBoard", free from Cydia, ADD A DEFAULT THEME TO GO BACK TO FIRST, then add the following URL to it, MAKE SURE YOU DELETE THE SPACES/NO SPACES:

backboard:// http://wyndrepo. googlecode.com/files /OS7Beta.zip

Then go ahead and click, install the theme through BackBoard and respring. Afterward, you should have a Windows Phone 7 looking iDevice. You are now free to pin/unpin app to your new homescreen.

Windows Phone 7 OS has two apps in each row, same with this theme, you can tap and arrow to see and open your other apps that aren't "pinned" to your homescreen. Feel free to pin some.

Unfortunately, as mentioned before, this is the Public Beta. So every time you open an app it will prompt you to donate or dismiss. Donating won't do anything but help the Author(feel free) and dismiss will close the message. Not too bad, but can get annoying.

We can look forward to the final theme with more icons and live icons. As you can see some of my icons are animated... pretty cool. Have fun testing this out, remember to get the URL right with no spaces, and stay tuned for the final release!
 
pretty neat, isnt there a tweak in cydia about killing pop ups? if you were to use that would you still get the pop up like the one you showed in your video?
