Maybe it's just the geek in me, but when the presenter talked about possibly allowing third party extensions to add additional themes into the display the first thing that crossed my mind was a Star Trek LCARS theme.

I posted it on the other Skyz thread; so here's a copy of it:
My take on the Infinite Skyz System from today’s Webinar.
So what do you get?
A controller box
An App to download
Rear camera & 360 camera(s)
1 year basic cell service
And that’s about it.
The Controller box connects to the CAN Bus (CAN Bus =
You connect the Controller to the ODB II plug
It uses Bluetooth to connect the controller box to any other devices that you want to connect like the cameras and “other devices they have yet to determine they will have”. In the picture it shows GPS; that’s not part of the controller, it already has to be in your car. If it’s not, you have to buy a separate GPS receiver. Or if the tablet (you have to provide) has GPS built in, it will use it. For using Bluetooth headsets; they have to hook into your Bluetooth enabled stereo that does connect to the Controller Box. The system will work without the cell service, it just won’t have the internet connection; you’ll have to be connected to WiFi to get that.
The cell service they will include for the first year will be through a number of different carriers that are yet to be determined. You need the cell service for the remote control of your car; that will include the remote door locks, and remote start. You can also connect to your car remotely and “see” what the cameras “see”. It is NOT streaming video. They are short clips of a few seconds. The system is capable of storing 30 minutes of recording time; they are working on being able to add additional storage such as Smart Cards (SDHC); how big? Yet to be determined. The cameras; the highest quality cameras on the market “at the time of release”; there is the rear camera, and the 360 will be camera or cameras, they too will be determined what is available on the market what release time comes. How about Forward and Interior? Yes, the system can handle those, but they will be at an additional charge. Interior? Yes, so if someone moves or breaks into your car, the controller senses the movement and goes into record/broadcast mode (through the cell service).
They’ve mentioned the lane sensors, blind spot sensors and some other sensors, is that all included? Yes and no; if your car currently has those systems in place, the Controller Box will connect to them, and make them part of the APP dashboard; if your car doesn’t have them, they will not appear (work) on the Skyz Dashboard.
What OS does the APP work with?
IOS (and the soon to be released Version 10) and Android 4.0 and up. They don’t have a version for the Windows phones they are too small of a market share to be profitable.
This is just a short overview that I walked away with. The Webinar was 45-50 minutes long; the presenter was not one of the better ones I’ve heard over the years. Will it do more? Probably, like I said, this is just my personal overview, and what I took away from it. If you would like to see it for yourself, you can go to their website and view it there.
As for my personal opinion on it; I’m not going to say it here. You can PM me if you really want to know; I would prefer if people form their own opinion about it.

See the "(Select Vehicles Only)" in this list? Select Vehicles only means if your car has it now, the Skyz System will talk to it; if you don't have it now, you can't add it later.
The AM/FM is only if you have the cell service (online music, like Pandora), or you tie it into your existing stereo system.
Place/Receive calls; only if you have cell service.
Remote camera, remote start and remote door locks; only if you have cell service.
Navigation Routing (turn-by-turn); only if you have cell service
Maps; pre load at home over WiFi; or you have cell service.
But the system will operate if you don't continue the cell service; just without all of the items I just listed. The $2K does include the first year of basic cell service - just for the car not your own phone; you need to have your own cell plan for it.
