iPhone access to Springboard icons

Is it possible for an app to access Springboard icons? I want to build a small animation where a ball is jumping over the icons over other apps.

Here's an example what I want to achieve.

Possible?

If you just wanted the effect you could have the user take a screenshot of their homescreen and use that in the animation, but thats the only way you could do that in the official SDK.

No, this isn't possible on iOS with the official SDK.

Move to Android? No, i dont think iOS can w/o jailbreak.

Begs question - ios5? Whats gonna happen there? Maybe we will get widget framework, hopefully at a minimum something for the lock screen.
