Are you a tried and true BlackBerry user, but for some reason love the look and feel of the T-Mobile G1′s user interface? If you are, there’s a new theme for the BlackBerry that will give you all that you are asking for. Called DroidBerry, this new theme replicates the look and feel of the Android interface for you… right on your Berry.

Of course, you won’t get any actual Android functionality, but at least it will look like it… Sort of. The clock doesn’t actually work, but really, when you break it down from a strict design point of view, the theme developer here did a pretty good job making this theme look as much like Android as possible. Tip ‘O the Cap to you my friend!

If you’re still not satisfied after installing the theme on your BlackBerry, go ahead and get a G1. Wait… No, don’t do that. Stick with your Berry and wait a while for some new Android-powered devices to hit the market. Should be lots of new Android-powered devices hitting us shortly (with the exception of the Kogan Agora lineup :( )
