At that time Matt Rogers, co-founder of Nest and former Apple engineer said that the prototype fused to the iPhone with the iPod however the interface wasn’t as good.
The video shows how they interact with a virtual Conference on the touch screen, which allows you to navigate in a menu similar to the iPod. Added to the calls, text messages or music, also there is a menu of extras that includes games, photos, notes, calendar, and more applications. The boot show an Acorn icon and is very similar to the mode as they began the classic operating systems of Apple.
