I think the lock screens they showed are more a tech demo whats possible. I think there will be some less flashy onesMy thoughts exactly. I love Rudy and all the work he's done for Windows Phone, but these lockscreens look like too much. Like a weird hybrid between Metro and Android (iOS 7?). It's not simple and clean. I chose Metro because I appreciate the fact that it's not trying to do too much, that it's not trying to be purposefully flashy. It's flashy, yes, but in a far more subtle way.
Thankfully, these lock screens are apparently only available via an app download, to help showcase what developers can do with the new lockscreen API. Translation: they're optional. Don't like them? Then just don't download them, problem solved.
A question: would the new lockscreen app be able to show tasks/notes/reminders/calenders on LS????

Indeed. Once the API is opened to all developers, a bunch of new creations are to be made. I'd like to see what apps like SimpleCal, LockMix, etc., do with the new lockscreen capabilities. In the past, they've relied on just changing the background image. Now, they can make the lockscreen that much more dynamic, interactive, and cool.
I can't wait to see how Rudy's apps take advantage of this. And, Facebook, Skype, all Bing apps, maybe even Cortana, with her "halo" constantly rotating on your lock screen.
