Well now after looking at this LSX Void skin for RR i might have to be using RR now. I also didnt kno that RR uses gestures. How does RR handle audio and video? I think i read a long time ago it uses winamp for audio.

I believe they are negotiating with one or more other companies. Either way whether streetdeck as it is now will give support or streetdeck as it will be gives support, it is not dead, it is in a S4 power state.

Yup RR uses gestures. You can also change the default red ball to white, or to a picture of a giraffe, it will still work.

And you are right RR uses Winamp. CF and SD both use Windows Media Player.

Excellent!!! There has to be a con to RR i gotta know it :-D I thought i would have to write most of my own software but it seems so much is already written for it so i should be ok till i feel like making something special. Does RR has OBDII Support? Can i use bluetooth devices? Phone support?

No con I can think of, unless you are against not spending hundreds... Although to be fair, RR has no navigation. A large chunk of the CF money and SD money goes to pay for navigation liscenses. RoadRunner you must use your own copy. Programs such as iGuidance v4 UMPC have become the norm, and are fully integrated including muting or lowering the volume when a direction is played, switching screens to the nav right before a turn, that sort of thing.

There is so much support, everything SD and CF has, RR has.

And FreeFone or RRMobile I think are the bluetooth phone ones. I dont use the feature so I cannot really say which is better.

I wasnt sure about this either. But I saw a thread in the forums about CF media not working at all. It was because it was installed with a TinyXP version stripped of WMP. Installed WMP and voila it worked, so it must be a dependancy, I could only assume that WMP is its backbone.

I feel like i'm missing something so you as we all do i'm gonna search all the threads to make sure i have all the files i need to get the skin to work and all the addon software thats going to be needed. I was going to run my front end of the CF card so it will start up fast but who knows what i'll do now. I'll keep everyone posted on my work in my worklog :-D

Can't seem to find an OBDII plugin for RR. Does anyone know of one?

I just downloaded RR and got it working in a pretty decent way. Only negative i have so far is the start up time is slow on my quad core 3 gigs of ram system so i could only imagine what it will be like on my carputer. Also there is apparently no obdII plugins at least none that i can find so that is still missing but all around pretty nice. I really like how fast the software itself moves.
