All,

The beta version of PocketDay for the Storm is now available. OTA install:

http://www.pocketday.com/files/v54_storm/pdp54os47.jad

This version takes full advantage of the touchscreen and knows about portrait and landscape modes so it can be used vertically or horizontally.

Tips:

Expand/Collapse sections, Touch the Section heading (no click)
Context sensitive menu for a section, Click on the Section Heading
Expand a section to full screen: Touch and hold for 1/2 second (no click)

Feedback always welcome.

Thank you. Hopefully, I will be installing it in a week.

crs, is this a Storm only beta? or can other devices benefit from it?

Jaime · 11-18-2008, 09:06 AM

Good question.

Any update to the Beta?

crs · 12-10-2008, 05:31 PM

We updated the beta yesterday. Sorry, we forgot to post here.

Same link. We fixed a few things and added a right to left finger swipe which bring up your pocketday speedkeys.

next will be a right to left swipe for your favorite apps.

Thanks, now what are SpeedKeys? Am I being thick or what, I have Key mappings assigned but when I do the swipe nothing appears?

SpeedKeys replaced Speed Dial in the last version. Speed Keys not only allow you to map a contact's phone, but also enable you to map a key to send an email or SMS to a contact with a single key press.

In that case shouldn't Key Mappings be removed from the PocketDay Settings options?

crs · 12-11-2008, 08:07 AM

Key Mappings allows applications to be mapped to keys. Speed Keys execute specific tasks like call someone, email someone or text someone. These are targeted activities. When you map a speed key to email someone and click it their email address is pre-filled in and you just have to type the email.

Anything new on the Storm / PocketDay front?

crs · 01-16-2009, 02:21 PM

It will be out of Beta early next week....

I've been trying for 2 days to download that beta but it keeps asking for a password. Can anyone share it?

Also, does anyone know if it syncs with Outlook? I'm running Outlook 2003 on my desktop and want to keep doing that.

TIA - R.

No password should be needed. You need a registration code after the trial, but nothing to download to my knowledge.
