Google's next Android update targets user interface revamp.

"Citing multiple sources close to Google, TechCrunch reports that the forthcoming Android update (codenamed 'Gingerbread') is designed to create a more uniform user experience across the ever-expanding Android platform, effectively putting an end to UI layer additions and tweaks from operators and manufacturers looking to differentiate their versions of Android-powered devices. Sources indicate Google's goal is to create a user experience on par with Apple's iPhone, rendering third-party skins virtually moot in the process. "
