So, in the end really, would you say the BeSpoke is really an expensive bigger display/input device for your iPhone (and maybe eventually Android?).

If so, I guess I'm underwhelmed particularly if you can get the app for free anyway.

I believe so - like I said, I don't have my FR-S yet, but all the documentation on the app and coverage says that the app runs on your phone and then uses the FR-S as a display. It would be interesting to see if other apps could use the FR-S display as well. The power on the stereo is upgraded with the Premium option and you have the touch screen interface for your music if either of those are selling points for you. I'll update my thoughts once I finally get my FR-S.

I'm quite happy with the stock unit actually, so no upgrade for me. I may eventually get an aftermarket dedicated NAV unit, but for now I'm good. Just curious more than anything else.
