I'm happy to announce that Apple have just approved the first update to
Squeemote. The biggest new feature in this release is the improved
support for music services and internet radio and there have been
plenty of bug fixes and performance improvements. Here's a full
changelog:

* Added support for browsing Music Services and Internet Radio
stations.
* Improved handling of music service and internet radio streams on the
now playing screen, including displaying the correct
artist/album/title/artwork for music service tracks.
* Squeemote will now automatically discover your server.
* Added support for server authentication and improved the layout of
the initial setup screen.
* Reduced initial startup time.
* Improved display of album tracks when browsing music library.
* Artists list now respects "ignored articles" server setting when
sorting.
* Added "clear playlist" button to current playlist screen.
* Improved responsiveness of volume slider control.
* Added "disable auto-lock" setting to prevent device from going into
standby.
* Numerous bug-fixes and performance/reliability improvements.

Work on 1.2 is already coming along and will hopefully be submitted to
Apple within the next week. This is a smaller release which will
contain support for Genres and a few more bug fixes as well as an
overhaul to the way the local caching works. This means no more need to
manually sync the albums list; it will instead check to see if a server
scan has occurred recently and if so, it will update the cache in the
background.

I'm still working on player sync but this will probably not be done
until 1.3. 

Enjoy the new release, and remember if you have any questions you can
email me or ask me any questions on here. The best place to go for
support however is to Squeemote's Get Satisfaction page:

As Steve Jobs would say, I think you'll love this update. ;)
