Video demo of HTC Espresso ROM now on the Net!

An XML, leaked a few weeks ago, suggests the HTC Espresso will be running on a Qualcomm MSM 7200A 528MHz CPU and will have a screen with HVGA resolution (320x480). This makes it resemble HTC Dream, except for the good old Sense UI. We can’t be much sure about the technical aspect of the specifications but one thing can be very clear that the Espresso ROM shows off a nicely polished new version of that Sense UI with the ROM installed on an HTC Hero and well I would have to admit that it all seems quite awesome.

There have been a few changes of course; it had to be a tad different from HTC Hero. The most noticeable difference would be the app launcher bar at the bottom, which now conveniently offers a Call button along with a Contacts button. Inside the application launcher there are some new translucent rounded squares that seem to be behind each and every shortcut.

Another big change is the Notification pane in the HTC Espresso ROM which also has a "Recent" section now which just like in Windows offers shortcuts to our recent applications. This new version of Sense UI is probably not HTC Espresso specific, but can’t say for sure until we see something from the company and we don’t know as to whether or we’re going to get an official picture of it anytime soon.
