The picture show is the "standard" windows mobile 6.5 today screen plugin. Page 16 of the user manual would seem to suggest that they've gone with a simple program launcher for the home screen though. Skimming through the rest it looks like Acer have made a minimal atempt to reskin the OS, but nowhere near the level that is showing up in some of the leaked HTC ROMS showing up now.

I was honestly thinking about getting this phone when it released, but then new renders of the HTC Leo started to surface.  Supposedly, it gonna have a 4.3 capacitive screen and a snapdragon processor.  If the images of the Leo are true then i'll wait, if not I'll probably buy this depending on price.
