win 7 64bit is supported and heavily tested

I always have newest video drivers and its a fresh install, it is however win7 64 enterprise edition.

garmin mobile is discontinued? this is the stuff Im talking about, when you buy these software they always do stuff like that to suck money from you. streetdeck, good example. GMPC is almost $100 just for navigation. what other navigation software will OM use now? for now I just use my SD2 navigation at the moment but looking for something that apart of a frontend.

The crash is coming from your video drivers which kind of re-enforces thats the problem. Post the appcrash log from %Appdata%\openMobile\ and I can be more specific.

Well yea because its already done and with the last set of maps it will still be usable and one of the best in the market for at least 2-3years.

At least that has some kind of zone support....the iPod support thing is a flat out lie. If windows can communicate with the iPod then it can play some of the files on the drive. It doesn't support metadata, playlists, images or anything other then what windows does for it.

Also:
GOOGLE SEARCH AND ROUTING
GOOGLE TRAFFIC
SHOUTCAST
USB RELAY

I agree with cusomaudioman, I dont want to throw down money for something that is going to be discontinued. Its bad enough I bought CF with Destinator in place, but what I like is I can use any other NAV with CF.

The main focus is still on getting the core rock solid and fully complete. We don't want our developers having to completely rewrite things every 6 months or get stuck with stupid design decisions. With 0.9 released, the new appstore online, and the core features complete we can focus on just bug fix releases and on really fostering plugin development.

Dont see an appcrash log and the driver version is nvidia 260.99

It is indeed a bug in your video drivers:
http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=187788

I'm surprised you don't have any issues with games crashing

Most companies are just holding back on the 260.99 update and waiting for 265 but I think the 265 update has been released for most cards so you might want to double check.

edit:
And if not, the recommended workaround from nvidia is to toggle the "enable threaded optimization" option in the nvidia control panel. Sorry I didn't realize you had that issue earlier in the thread - had forgotten about that

SHOUTCAST
UAS [OM]
USB RELAY

Ive checked off what I know OM has, but what about the rest not checked.

USB relay is coming. I'm cutting my teeth on plugin creation by making something to work with Arduino. Well the Uno version as that it the one I have ordered up.

Hopefully I will not let you down LOL.

I've been thinking on starting a shoutcast plugin for personal use since I know the stations that are streamed with ease and never used pandora before. Only way I've streamed shoutcast is through the bass.net.dll audio library in my own programs. I've never liked relying on an exterior app to be installed on machines.

I got some basic designs laid out already, but nothing functional yet. I probably could have a working beta in a week if the interest is there...
