Calling Screen.JPG

I was quite surprised when I pulled my Droid X out of my purse to check my mail and saw this (see attached pictures, hope I did it right) on my screen instead of my usual Launcher ProPlus screen. One of the pictures attached is the "new" home screen and one is what it looks like after I pressed the Calling soft button. Once I pressed Closed, the new screen disappeared and my usual home screen showed up. Has anyone every seen this before and how did it happen? I am unable to recreate what happened to get this screen to show up.

Never posted to a forum in my life but my curiosity has gotten the better of me..

It's in your apps.. "car dock".. so you can recreate it whenever you like. It's auto-activated when placed in the Droid X motorola car mount.. However you can just run the app in any mount, either landscape or portrait. Big buttons while driving. There's a similar "home dock" app also for when placed in the desktop cradle. Makes the X look like an alarm clock on steroids I think.. I haven't even activated it myself.
