There are several Quartz implementations floating around it seems. I have tried to explain these as far as I can below:
The first picture here was obtained from Designing for Quartz on the Symbian Dev Net website. I may be breaking copyright here by showing it and if I am quite happy to remove it. I believe that this is from a February 2000 version of Quartz (that what the document says!). It interesting because it shows some ideas in development and some that have been lost - we may also seem some of these implemented in actual devices.

Todo in not on the Top App Bar, but Calc is. There is a help icon, presumably to access a help app. Most interesting is the Shell Icon, this is the same as the Shell App on ER5 i.e. the filing system. It shows it is possible to see it fairly easily in Quartz, it just hidden and open up the possibility of a traditional file based system being used.

All the coulouring is slightly different, but on the whole what is remarkable is that there been relatively little change over the last 8 months.

This is the system screen from the Emulator. You can see different colouring and different apps on the App Bar as previously mentioned.

There is no Shell Option and some of the App Names have changed.

Connect to PC is now an option and the Time app has appeared. The help icon has gone though. Its now built into each app. However there seems to be some apps not viewable in the top shot. There is a scrollbar, maybe something is hidden?

More interesting are the changes to the Menu. This screen is Launcher where as before it was Application Option. There is also an Edit Menu available. An extra item has appeared on the bottom bar which I think is the amount of Disk space available.

The order the apps are displayed in has changed. I cant see the how its done in the bottom on, the top is obviously alphabetical.

This screenshot is from the Symbian website. The text size is different, but this maybe due to a different zoom setting. However there are now 5 lines of Application Buttons. More apps added and different names and icons!

The big different is on the Top Bar where Phone is added. According to one Symbian document this is provided by each manufacturer and allows the device to be used as a phone, just by clicking on the contact in Contacts.

The Bottom bar also seems some changes, they keyboard icon and time have switched sides and there is no grayed out new e-mail icon or indication of diskspace.

A Game of 0's and X's appears to have been added as well as a Generic and Help App. Various name and icon changes have also occurred.

This is the Ericsson Device that is a Quartz machine. Interestingly there a headphone attached, and several buttons down the side. Its not the same as the shot above. We can see there yet another different set of apps. This is clearer in the modified image I have made below:
