Not sure if I agree with your "beautiful and usable" comment, there's a very good reason for design iteration.
Check out some geocities sites from a while ago for some 'usable' websites.
Personally I feel like the UI of iOS is very aged, requiring you to click on a icon to see information about that app whereas a widget allows a wealth of information at a glance. Often even access to an application's controls without having to open the app.
