I'm wondering about the gradient in the background that I saw a few times in that demo. At least I think it was a gradient that looked like just a few bands of colour.

I'd like to know how well the screen on the Lumia 800 displays gradients. I know some OLEDs have problems with banding.

@dentaku It is a gradient. Gradients work fine in Windows Phone as long as you keep them to 16 bit color or below. The banding shows up when you go above that.
