I don't have enough expertise, time, and motivation to get this rolling so I will be the first one to admit, I can't do this, but would love to see it work.

I went on vacation recently and LOVED the fact that I was able to get my expedia reservations loaded into Passbook, as well as my airplane tickets, although it didnt really work out.

I don't really use passbook because of the fragmentation, and in order to get it working I'd have to download the app for every individual thing that i want in it, along with the sheer number of foreign apps and foreign locations I visit (currently located in China), integration is a mess, to say the least.

Now that the jailbreak is out, I would hope someone can implement an app, or even tweak, to allow us to get the most out of the passbook app. I know you can already generate passbook links using http://www.passsource.com/, but I would like to see something in-phone, generate using some self customizable links, or even through certain apps themselves (like take a screenshot/photo of a QR/Bar code and then start a passbook entry). And you can GPS tag the location yourself, using google maps api. I know I am getting ahead of myself, but I would really use this, and it would make my phone, as well as passbook, a much welcomed addition.
