Video: Windows 8 UI ported to iOS, hell freezes over

If you are using an iPhone and have been salivating over Windows 8, go ahead and jailbreak your device then make the jump to see a new dream board theme in action that replicates Windows 8.

If you are using an iPhone and have been salivating over the Windows 8 UI, you now have the opportunity to experience the Metro-goodness if your device is jailbroken as you can now download a Windows 8 UI for the iPhone.

The skin is remarkably robust and features the tiles we know and love, charms and even "desktop" support. Desktop support is actually a shortcut back to the standard iOS interface but switching between "Windows 8" and iOS is a fluid experience. 

The UI runs on-top of dreamboard and the actual theme will set you back a $1.50; but that's a small bit of change if you are bored of the standard iOS experience.
