There are tons and tons of "cool UI" and "design inspiration" blogs and sites, but they seem to all focus on WEB applications and websites. Does anyone know of any blogs, or specific products that have really forward looking, innovative, or just plain cool UI for client applications?

I'm thinking of things like the Zune Software, Dead Space HUD UIVideo, Apple Instruments, etc. Innovative iPhone apps too.

Screenshots, download links, videos, blogs, whatever would be awesome

In terms of apple related:

also the Logic software by Apple is pretty complex in terms of UI.
