Wow, this new version is great!

Thanks! I hope it's been worth waiting for!

A couple comments: I've noticed an odd refresh anomaly. When in hi-res mode, new screens draw 3 times instead of just once. Once the screen is drawn it behaves normally, but it takes longer to get to a drawn screen since you have to wait for the three draws.
This does not present a terrible problem, but is a little annoying :D

Yeah, I noticed that too... I'd thought of a complicated way to fix it, but it didn't work right off, so I pulled it. Naturally, the real fix is easy... :)
And it's already done - it'll be in the next beta. (or release if there's no more betas - that's Jean's call...)

It now "flashes" exactly the same as without Fitaly. (i.e., it doesn't flash at all between most apps - say flipping between datebook and memopad and X-Master, and once as it starts Address Book, and once as it exits it)

Thanks for all your hard work!

Actually, I've enjoyed it! It has been a lot of work hours, but it's a fun project, and I really love the NR-70. Just wish I had the one with the camera, though... :)

The hard part has been how much Sony -uh- -er- did in -uh- strange (yeah, that's it, strange) ways... But that's something I really enjoy - figuring out how to do things that aren't supposed to be able to be done. (or just aren't documented :)
