FAQ: The red things on The Shard are the blind boxes. The blinds themselves are grey.

The Shard's observation deck opens in Feb 2013: http://the-shard.com/the-view-from-the-shard

Yes the top is finished and will remain open to the elements. The exterior is (pretty much) complete.

Couple from me as well on the camera phone walking past on the way back from the Olympics.

Love how this looms over the street and it's juxtaposition with the surrounding buildings.
