We were looking at those concepts as well wazd, we took them into consideration while completing our concept. We already have the ruler UI. "Favourites" make no sense at all, considering the auto-scan feature saves all available stations, not only your favourite ones, but the "Stations" UI is very similar. The last visual concept is impossible to make. Martin is also not willing to provide a web service for locations list downloading, even forgetting the fact that that the whole idea wasn't a good one in the first place (always out-dated lists, some areas will never get a good list, the need for Internet access possibly abroad, etc.). We have thoroughly considered many options, we have a plan that Martin is following. If you have any further suggestions, please don't hesitate to add them.
I wasn't even aware of any animosities here, I'm not sure why do you put the word "experts" in quotes. We had a very good session in Barcelona with UX experts from Nokia and we used that time to fullest extent possible. I'm not sure if I see anything wrong with that. I don't really care about other applications at the moment, so I'm not even sure where you're coming from with the "other apps need help" argument.
I think you have a strange entitlement issue. It's Martin's project, not yours and definitely not mine. If Martin decides to ditch everything and re-do the app from scratch this hour, I won't blame him. If he decided to do the UI completely differently than any concepts, it's still OK. OK?

Ok, thanks.
Although, my actual use case is: kwotski knows the approximate frequency of the two stations he's interested in listening to, swipes to the vicinity, and spends irksome minutes re-re-re-re- and re-swiping to try and land on the optimal reception frequency..
But I'll be happy to work round your improvements If the radio works (and it does, gloriously!) that's enough in the end. After all, once the right frequency is saved the game is largely won.

And that's the problem, that everybody thinks that time means nothing, only money have worth. If money are not involved - what bad can happen anyway?

Look wazd, I was just trying to help Martin out, because I really care about the application. I wasn't aware how deeply you were involved in the project, I thought you were just like me - throwing ideas around and see if they catch on. Some of them did, some of them didn't.
If you're throwing a fit as if someone was stealing toys from your playground, then I'm sorry, but you're acting like a big baby, there is nothing personal about this, it's just how I see it. If there was any formal agreement between you and Martin then work it out between yourselves in private and I'll retract my words. Sheesh.
