Echoes Interface Design v2

Description

Mockup, of course. Basically shows most of my dreams for interface design.

I shouldn't have to explain anything other than that it is a presentation program. All other functionality should be intuitive.
Currently, "Intuitive" interfaces, by my standard, are limited to touchscreen devices [iPad], because in a touchscreen device there is an inherent need for large buttons. Despite criticism, I still firmly believe that large button are, in accordance with Fitt's Law, a good step in making things more intuitive. This is not a blanket statement. AS you may note, I have chosen to put the menubar commands in small, text only buttons in a toolbar at the button of the window.

I long for the day when my computer looks something like this.

btw those icons are iWorks. I did not make them and take no credit for them. They are only there to demonstrate the concept.

Hey, if you do open source design, or work for apple or microsoft or any other major tech company, please, implement this!

Just a reminder, this does not contain all the functionality required by a presentation program, i.e. color picker, font picker, light table, etc. just a proof of concept, as well as a work in progress.
