Is that bug fixed already? I know you've mentioned this before, but I've never encountered it. I'm using 0.84-pre2 (2006 build) full time and see no big problems. No, I don't think it's been fixed since even SourceForge's Files area still only has 0.82pl3 !!!! Besides, who's the maintainer these days? (Bart? Doubt it, he's always busy.) I haven't heard from Blair in a long while. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
