The weather icon is part of the factory navigation system from what I can determine. The GM Apps icon is likely on a prototype system running the upcoming 2015 4G LTE infotainment system. Its supposed to have an online "store" similar to Apple and Android. There's early photos of the still camo-covered Stingray showing a boost gage, hi ting at the supercharged Z06, so it wouldn't be a surprise if the video hinted at future infotainment upgrades. As for update capabilities for us '14 owners, I doubt it will happen. While technically possible, it might involve so much effort to install new hardware and software as to make it economically unfeasable.
