Hey all not at all trying to spam here but thought I would follow up to my original question and promise, and let you all know about the official release of our application called DOT.TUNES that lets you stream anything (except ITMS files or non-iphone encoded videos) to your iPhone! Check it out at http://www.dottunes.net
Now that the project has launched I will have more time to spend here learning all the latest tricks. And hats off to Joe Hewitt as always for providing iUI which served as a nice tutorial for what was possible!
