New Journal Bar 3.0 public beta


Just got this notice off the Wormhole forums and thought the guys here might be interested...
Quote:
If anyone is interested, we're having a public beta of v3 of JB. To download, go to:
http://www.omegaone.com/journal.arm.zip
Download this file, then unzip it. Uninstall your current copy of Journal Bar, then copy the journal.arm.cab file you unzipped onto your Pocket PC. Then use File Explorer to run it and the beta version should be installed.
Note, you may need to delete user settings to get this version to work properly. If you don't want to potentially lose your user settings, don't install this beta version.
They ask that you post your comments on the forum site. My feelings... it's neat! They have added location and basic weather info to the today screen (no more cryptic numbers), they have also added an option for "large displays" that adds a fourth headline to the news links and seems to increase the distance between the scroll buttons and stories by half a millimeter or so.
They have also added radar and IR satellite images to the detailed weather sections but these are enabled only for the US right now.
For Japan, they added a few more cities but still nothing for the lonely island of Shikoku.
All in all it looks like a doable upgrade. I just wish for VGA resolutions they would increase, or allow the user to increase, the size of the scroll buttons and the headline font by 10 or 20%.
editor's note: Good tip, modded up...thanks Kamikun!
