[Beta] Working on a new car mode app "Car Starter". Anyone interested in trying it out?

[TallAssRob]

I tried out the "Car Mode" app that comes built in to Nokia phones to be used with the CR-200 charger, and I wasn't that happy with it, so I decided to write my own app.

It's similar to the CR-200 app, very basic easy to use interface, only instead of programming 3 buttons to launch various apps, I give you two buttons that can be programmed to launch a navigation app to your home, work or wherever. There is also a contacts page where you can store up to 6 frequently used phone contacts in order to place a quick call.

Also, the app includes NFC so you can place a tag in your car that will launch the app with a tap.

If anyone is interested in trying out the app I just posted it as a beta. Please send an email to carstarter@live.com with your live ID if you would like to try it out.
