Turns out holiday weekends along with a touch of insomnia go a long way toward side projects. The Deal Daemon UI is starting to shape up (although there are still plenty of bugs) and the back-end is way more of a known quantity after some serious research. Now hopefully I can pull this off before these guys…

The home screen gets an overhaul.  This is it on my HTC Inspire 4G.  From here you can simply save the terms and let it run, or you can search the selected sites immediately to refine your query.

Searches running in parallel (platform dependent).

Potential matches begin to fill in.

The icons show which site the product was pulled from.

Press and hold for product details.  From here you navigate straight to the product page for more information, or reset your search terms to poll specifically for this item.

And your newly defined product search is shown in the list of defined searches, with the most recent at the top.  Again, icons indicate where these searches will be run.

And because I know everyone was curious to see how this all gets done…

Constructive feedback is most welcome!  This thing has to be good or else ‘the competition’ will bury me, especially given their household-name strength of brand…
