I recently read a post on HTCSource.com reg the TouchFlo interface with some new roms, It was time for me to flash the ROM on the ageing TyTn. Luckily for me there was a TyTN ROM with the new Manila 2D. I fashed it on to my device and the initial experience is really good. For those who wants to try the new interface with out flashing on to a new ROM juz jupm on the official Manilla Porting thread @ xda-developers.com. There are a few bugs with the application like the audio manger doesn’t update the name of the song, etc

Sushilange from xda-dev has created a TF3D Configuration program, which now lets you change the order of the tabs in the TouchFLO 3D user interface. That way you can put your 5 most-used tabs right up front on the left side so that they’re easier to access without having to slide ans select them. You can assign a different panel to that Home key by placing it all the way to the left. For example, if you want to jump to your People panel by pressing the Home key, just place it in the left-most space.
If you find this tool useful, please donate to the developer.

There’s no audio in the video, but it apparently looks great on the Touch Diamond’s 640×480 pixel screen as per the info from pocketnow.com
