When will we see HTC's new "Virtual Book" UI?

[Anonimac]

So this news is a few months old, but i'm wondering if this is something that could be seen on the very next wave of Android devices from HTC (Incredible, Bravo, etc...). This was reported in late Oct/early Nov but i haven't read anything about it since.

Link to one article on the subject...there are others:
HTC is working on next gen “Virtual Book” touch UI Unwired View

Any have thoughts on this?

I remember reading about that, But I haven't heard anything either.

It can take months of development, planning etc. It's even possible they dropped this idea all together but if something leaks about this you would definitely know about it

Its a patent application. Most likely they have no plans to build this EVER, but want to hold a patent to stop other people from thinking about something similar without having to cough up huge sums of money to HTC. This is how the business world works.
