Over the last 10 years, my research group at Berkeley and now the
University of Washington has created several sketch-based tools
specifically for UI designers.

Most of these tools have videos linked off the main web pages:

SILK for GUI Design (see
http://dub.washington.edu/projects/denim/research/)

Denim for Web Design (see http://dub.washington.edu/denim/)

SUEDE for Voice UI Design (see http://dub.washington.edu/suede/)

Topiary for Location-based UI Design (see
http://dub.washington.edu/topiary/)


Activity Designer for Activity-based Ubicomp Design (see
http://dub.washington.edu/activitydesigner/)

Most of these are also available for download.

A similar development, but intended to quickly produce 3D models is
Takeo Igarashi's Teddy:

Also, from the same lab at MIT that did the sketch video:

The Oxygen lab sure seems like a neat place...
