The Blackberry UI
The Blackberry has one of the best User Interfaces I have seen. All the navigation is done with two buttons: a small wheel placed by the thumb so you can easily scroll up and down on any list--and you can push it in (to be the equivalent of a mouse-click or enter button), and a button below it that is the equivalent of a "back" button. And that's it. A full keyboard for when you need to type. They've done a superb job of simplifying something very complex into something trivial--and that's the heart of good UI design, and the heart of good insight as well.
