    are they in trouble using your skin? You click on it and it takes you to the info, not the site your skin is....

    There are a couple comments in that article that say your skin sucks, too...

    I also see how oblivious the readers of Engadget are to our little hobby.

    Doom in the car? Got it!
    Web browsing in the car? Got it! (Although not while driving, of course!)

    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?

    I made the basic interface of the skin, and posted some images of "finished" photoshop versions. But the actual picture shown in the article is from another version someone else made for RoadRunner i think.

    Toyota isn't using anything related to that screenshot.

    That was just a stolen pic added to the engadget article by the poster. If you click the picture, it takes you to the source:
