The name of Matias Duarte might sound unfamiliar to a lots of you. The Helio and Sidekick user interfaces, however, are highly popular overseas. According to "reliable" information from Engadget, the designer and his team are from now on working on the user interface of Palm OS, which is expected to become not only cooler but also more comfortable. Our source has discovered from the designer's online CV that he is working on a new project since 2007, which must be the Palm user interface, as this has been partially confirmed by Palm. The Palm operating system, that is running very late, can practically be saved only by a smaller wonder, as Windows Mobile 7, that is based on a new foundation, Google Android and the unified Symbian interface are all serious opponents even one by one. The completely redesigned Palm interface, that has been promised since 2004, had its launch date due last year, but the company has reported on new delays.
