I just got my Tilt the other day. I would say about 10% of the operating system is now stock :rolleyes: . I'm using PocketCM, which I love. One glaring omission, it seems to me, is the lack of an iPhone style music player. It would be great to have the finger scrolling and nice interface as a replacement for the terrible library management of WMP. Anybody working on something like this?

The new version of Pocket Player has touch scrolling. However, they clearly put very little thought into it, as it has a lot of glaring problems that make it more of a novelty than something of actual use. Hopefully they'll fix it, but it's a good start.

I tried out Pocket Player. The finger scrolling is actually pretty nice, but the rest of the interface is aweful. Is there any project out there working on making a completely finger based MP3 player? It seems to me like the basic framework of Pocket CM could be easily ported to playing music, assuming it was programmed modularly:

1. Substitute the contacts database for a music database.
2. Substitute the context menu (Call, SMS, Edit, etc) for a music playing screen.
