I tried the beta2 release... I found it better than the previous one, but needs still a lot of work to do. Lots of crashes of the apps... and the same problems you mentioned:<br>- low call volume <br>- unreliable wifiscan (but i managed to do it 3 times succesfully, the real bug is that you can't type with the keyboard because the popup menu is placed a layer over ;-) )<br>
- crashes<br><br>..but... very nice!<br>Hoping to have some improvements soon ;-)<br>d<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 11:48 PM, Joel Newkirk <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:freerunner@newkirk.us">freerunner@newkirk.us</a>></span> wrote:<br>
