As I’ve written <http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/06/06/8-people-palm-poached-to-make-the-pre/> before: “Wherever this guy goes, awesome user interfaces follow.” He and his team at Danger built a tremendously usable interface for the Sidekick, his work at Helio (especially the stuff that went <http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2010/05/26/exclusive-the-helio-ocean-3-that-could-have-been/> to waste at the end, never to be seen by the public eye) was incredible, and then.. then there was webOS. Say what you will about the Palm Pre and Pixi from a hardware standpoint, but the software that runs on’em is pure user interface gold. That’s largely because of the work of Matias and his team. Alas, Palm just lost Matias to the lil’ green robot that could: Android. Google has confirmed that Matias is joining them as the Android team’s User Experience Director. Score one for Google.
