Hehehe.. I'm not surprised either :P

But I'm very pleased with these news. These guys will probably make a killer-looking UI

And unlike what many say, the UI is very important to the overall user experience.. and M8 needs a great looking and unique interface if it is to compete with products like the iPhone! Rushing out with an amateurish iPhone-inspired UI could cripple it's probability of success, and waste all the time and money that Meizu invested in R&D.

Improving the UI should not make the M8 take longer either, since the people doing it are not the same ones fixing OS bugs, developing the multi-touch software, or testing the new 6410 chips. The miniOne release should not take much longer now (the rumors seem to indicate August 8) and any efforts to polish the UI in the meantime are very positive IMO.
