Any early opinions?

As I suspected, the new "Fragments" concept that splits up Activities
(screens) seem to automatically adapt to large and small screens. They also
say that it's optimised for single- and multi-core, so I guess Honeycomb
will be coming to phones, too.

I get the impression the new look (they call it "holographic") is actively
made to discourage skinning. Application developers are strongly encouraged
to adhere to the OS's look and feel and new best practices like the action
bar have been baked in.

And I haven't seen what it looks like yet, but the date/time picker has been
redesigned. That's a relief, as the old one was criminally ugly. HTC Sense
actually has a fairly nice one.
