The name of the app in question? SmartScreen. It brings the option to add informal widgets to the lock screen ( eg weather etc ).
Widgets are similar to those on Apples dashboard, with a familiar look and feel. They can be re-arranged on the lock screen just like moving apps on your iphone / ipod springboard, its the same tap and hold to move system.
The application will work on all models of iphone / ipod touch that are running 3.x.x firmware, but will only be available for download on jailbroken devices via Cydia etc.
Beta testing will be underway shortly and a smartscreen sdk will be available to everyone in November 2009, as for a release date to the general public, nothing has been given away yet.
This app wont appeal to everyone, but any app that adds extra functionality to your device is certainly worth a look!
