I agree with Lucas on the size.  Nexgen is like 8 megs and takes forever if your drive is full.  Evox is much quicker.  So far we have:

- ftp client
-skin browser
-defrag
-rip cd's
-rip dvd's (137 limit? 2.2 terabytes?)
-timely loading of dash
-text editor
-voice activation (dude, were you kidding)
-functional appearance of MS dashboard
-password protection
-control of background music
-customizable animated background
-native file management
-full networking capability
-web browser/email client

-And I'd like ability to change audio, video mode,
-all features of config magic (wow what an app)
-pictures of games
-Alphabetical list of games
-saves info(like original dash)
-All features of evox(great ftp, nice smooth feel)
-look and feel of ms dash(nexgen shines here of course)
-way to view gamesizes on drive
-connect the music function of the original xbox dash.  Somehow have that kind of music function that original ms dash has, to the dashboard.  Like an option in a music player that allows you to set the music into the dash.  Hmm, wish i could explain that more clearly.  
-the ability of your xbox to go to your fridge and get you a brew
-defrag ability (needed? not needed?...heard both sides...what do you think?)
-a specific link to xbox media player...this i think because it is the single most used app on the xbox.
-a running list of everyone who contributed to all of the apps, emus,.....everything in a scrolling movie like presentation.  When someone makes an app, or contribution then they register it after being confirmed and their name appears on the running list.  I think i would be surprised to see how many great people have contributed, and they deserve some sort of recognition. (some will say its gay but i think they should be recognised).

I don't personally object to having an all-in-one solution as long has the user had the option of diabling the bulit in app in favor of a 3rd party one.  Kinda like in Windows XP.. i hate the built in cd burning software, so i use Nero/Recordnow MAX... but i like the media player so i use it.

I want in game screen shots.

Already can do that, it isn't a feature of the dash, that's part of the kernel.
If you use the debug kernel properly setup, you can take screen shots in any program.

[maxgeek]

Yeah but don't u have to have this setup along with the XDK on your computer. Also isn't the bios like 1mb. Will this work with a v1.1?

But I would think a hdd defrag tool built in would be a good option to look into ??

I agree with that, being able to defrag your HDD would be an excellant feature.


EDIT: Damn typos

Well Ny team has got some small Shots of what our dash Is going 2 start looking like. So far 1 screen but expect more 2morrow & a few days after that.

We still looking for Devs & we need 1 more Gfx Desighner. We got our 2d Desighner we now need a 3d designer. If you think u can help plz leave me a pm on this forum.

Tell me what u think of the screen dump.

[nonamer66]

i want random mp3s to play in background. also want video backgrounds or flash type backgrounds that will give the ability to have a falling matrix scheme. you know the kind in a screen saver.

[Videogamebuyer14]

Perhaps the ability to play through generated playlists (.m3u) just another good thing I came up with off the top of my head.
