Default B5 inspired iphone app

Just submitted this to the app store, but I thought I would share it here:

http://cottoncrown.com/headunit/

The red theme might look familiar, but I didn't program any missing pixels. I wanted a music controller to use in my car that matched my B5 S4's red LCD theme, so the car and its dash LCD window was my main inspiration.

oh wait. forgot to mention. The red S4 theme is only available in Germany and costs $600. =)
It lasts for about 6 months before all the pixels on your iphone will go out.

Default It is now available + here are some pics

Here are some (pretty terrible) pics of the setup in my S4. I have a DICE module w/ the cord coming out the back of my ashtray, which had the tray removed and some grey speaker carpet laid down in its place. It makes a great little iphone holder.

HeadUnit is in the app store at itms://itunes.apple.com/us/app/headunit/id365013181?mt=8

Not really looking to spam anyone, it is just a product that grew out of reading and participating in these
forums, so I wanted to share.

Just downloaded it. Good job man

I did go into the settings and set the preferences. My only constructive criticism is that it would be nice to have the option to have a menu/buttons to select songs/playlists on the actual display.

Trying not to have buttons on the screens, just gestures. Two-finger right swipe pulls up the system's music picker though.

Think I might have replied too quickly and come off like a dick. I see what you are getting at now. I have some plans to bring additional screens to the app, possibly including a playlist selector. I am more of a 'shuffle whole library' type guy, so that is definitely what I geared it towards. But I would really like to be able to replace the system music picker with something that fits the app themes if I can do so without overcomplicating things. Feel free to fill out a feedback form on the headunit site anytime you get ideas. I am planning on actively developing this on an ongoing basis, so the squeakiest wheels will get the grease.
