Looks nice but really slow compared to WP7.
I wonder what the guys from MS think about that… Imagine someone seeing a phone with that theme and expecting it to be WP7. If it is slow he might not want to buy a WP7 device and will tell his "experience" to other possible buyers…
Just my 2 cents.
I own a WM6.5 device now, but think I'll get a WP7 device instead of installing the theme (even if it means I have to save some money ;-)).
