    T-Mobile just released the Shadow device yesterday and it brings a fun, custom UI developed by Microsoft and HTC. You can now access and control all the primary functions of your device from the unique Home screen. This kind of customization is needed to bring consumers to Windows Mobile and the Shadow may be a hit.
