The guys at PreCentral got their hands on a leaked webOS 3.0 emulator and taken a tour of the new OS.

Some caveats - The emulator is running on far more powerful software than the OS will eventually run on, and touch is handled via the mouse. However, it does give us a pretty thorough walk-through of the new OS.

Here’s a video tour:

Loads of screenshots on the site.

What do you think? Interested? I sure am (although I’m going to wait it out to see what the hardware specs are like before committing).

Yeah, so where is the video now? Or would it be too hard to actually do some research like a real reporter?

Oh, I love the thumbnail picture of the OP. Nothing makes me smile more than a tech geek in a mad dog gangsta pose.

Thanks for the comedy!

@Naryan You know, that's the great thing about America. We get to have our opinions, and you get to be a hypocrite, doing to me exactly what you are scolding me for.
