New touchscreen cellphone interfaces galore

For some inexplicable reason touchscreen interfaces for cellphones seem to be all the rage these days. And apparently there’s some kind of conference going on in Barcelona, where new touch interfaces keep popping up left and right. Entirely too much to digest right now, so here’s a couple of links to get back to later: there’s Windows Mobile 6.5, which looks a lot like iPhone OS. There’s the Nokia N97, which doesn’t look a lot like iPhone OS, but aside from that there’s little to glance from the short clip. There’s the Sony Ericsson Idou, which looks a lot like the PS3 interface; kinda sexy, but overly swishy in an almost sickening way. Of all the recent entries in the touchscreen phone interface space I’m still most impressed by the Palm Pre, though.

Later: Apparently Windows Mobile 6.5 rather sucks.
