XtH description: “VCMS provides, in stunning, airplane xxxxpit style, compass, odometer, attitude, altitude, speed, and your exact latitude and longitude. It’s the information that’s been sitting in your BlackBerry® Playbook™, unnoticed, all this time, now presented to you in one fiendishly clever app!
Nobody does beautiful dials and gauges like HedoneDesign, nobody. I used to wake up my Storm screen just to admire those on the Vault theme. Now there’s an app that gives you ongoing useful information on Hedone’s unique dials so you can just stare at them.
The compass spins with elegant slowness (clearly modeled after oil-damped compasses). The attitude dials on either side will have strangers looking at how BlackBerry® Playbook™ got the large balls into such a thin device. The altitude (adjustable to read in feet or meters), speed (kph or mph, and Knots, yeah that’s right), latitude and longitude, distance traveled (dual trip) are easily read on a beautiful, creamy light green or deep blue and black (day and night modes) screen. The time and date are subtly included on the dial which somehow never appears crowded. You can easily reset the calibration anytime so changing the position or your BlackBerry® Playbook™ from lap to dashboard is no problem.
Best of all, unlike your phone, you need no wireless connection for any of these, so take your BlackBerry® Playbook™ out to play in your boat, plane, mountain, or arboretum.”

I own and fly an airplane. It doesn't have a xxxxpit, why is the forum editing perfectly good english words?

While your display, as seen in the picuters, is stunning it is nothing like an airplane display.

Description is made by one of our XtH beta testers and in his opinion it does look like it. that doesnt mean that we did wanted it to look that way or that we are saying it does. ;)

our goal was to do eye pleasing design for GPS oriented application with all of the important information PB can provide from GPS.

but thank you for your remark!
