There is a theme like this for the iPhone? I will like to apply a similar experience to my new iPhone :)

BlueiPadV2 has just been updated. Download it now from Cydia.

Some nice enhancements to the original! See screenies attached :D

Best of all? The iPad2 stock icons for camera, FaceTime, and photo booth are themed! YAY ;)

UPDATE - I have to say, JMG has done a great job with the upgrade. I can't find anything that has been missed now, including the mute switcher icon, tweaks to the UI (better 3G icon!), and a great spinner replacement!

I was editing some internal stuff with ifile and had to restore.... Anyway...

Tried downloading it and I am getting a the 403 forbidden error like if I didn't buy it. I signed into Cydia and tried to download through the installable purchases section but no avail. Any ideas? I have never had this problem before.

Google didn't help at all. :(

F4780y, you have plugged this theme and nearly sold it to me.......but what are the new enhancements, is this a totally adaptable theme, in that I mean, can you change background wallpapers, is the weather area changeable? Can you include your own music/sounds?
Sorry for all the questions, but i'mlooking for a theme that I can go all out and alter to my hearts content.
Cheers mate

It keeps your own wallpaper but you can select the wallpaper that comes with it. Not much else.
I create my own themes by mixing a few themes together. Like I used to have kryptonite and blue iPad v2 mixed.

Yes, all Winterboard themes are adaptable to your needs with a little effort. What Winterboard does is substitute files on top of what is already there in the OS. So if you want to change a button or graphic you simply provide a replacement in your theme and Winterboard will apply it.
Wallpapers can of course be changed as graywolf pointed out.
However, this theme does not come with a "weather area". You are maybe thinking of another theme. That said, you can add your own if you have the skills!
You can use the sounds that come with it or swap in your own. They are in "caf" format, but you can google how to create those!
So yes, all Winterboard themes can be altered to your hearts content, especially this one.

Dreamboard by contrast is not quite so customisable. You forgo some of the agility for the more radical theme components like very large icons, radical layouts, and widgets.

Hope that helps.
