Thanx Alex, Currently I do everything nibless in my development (including creating dynamic views based on records in the database) so I have no need to go to MD 2.8 in that case. Likewise, I'm building a project that won't rely on iOS 5 features, so might have to give that a miss for now.
Might keep my notebook on the stable line, and update this machine (when in OSX rather than Windows) to the Beta line just to see where things are at.

I have a second machine I could put different versions on so could try it on both, provided I can change my activation of MonoTouch.

I've had that installed for a bit, but just upgraded to MT 4.0.5 this morning and the debugger stopped connecting. The current working setup is to pick both components (MonoTouch) from the lane you pick: (a) Stable: MonoTouch 4.0.5 with MonoDevelop 2.4.2 (b) Beta: MonoTouch 4.1 with MonoDevelop 2.6RC1 (c) Alpha: MonoTouch 4.9 with MonoDevelop 2.8 Alpha 1 Miguel _______________________________________________ MonoTouch mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch
