Great stuff, thanks!

It'd be great if you could keep an image cache to speed up previously viewed email loading.

2nd, It does everything as expected, no problems with attachments etc on my phone.
3rd, I like the fact that I can still delete from "mailbox and handheld" as well as handheld. So I am still able to reconcile my deleted items. (this is something that does not work with the "other" email html viewer. (this statement is not an attempt to disclaim the quality of any developer's work....It IS GREATLY appreciated by me)

I am using a pearl with 4.2.194 Platform 2.3.0.77

Cannot wait for the spell check!

yep, same here.. want the spell check

Awesome, awesome app, by the way!!
Can more fonts be added? For example, I just use BBClarity, font=Plain 7pt and love it. I'd love to see Empower have the same black font on the same white background so that its basically seemless when reading a message.

I like this app thus far. I also would like to use the native BB font settings vs the font settings in this app, that's the only thing I don't like. Also if we had the ability to change the background color that would be great!

ani · 06-18-2007, 08:24 PM

yep, nitty & cayzac.. am happy that u r liking it.. An option to change background color has been requested a lot so i m sure gonna implement it real soon

Also, the new update will have few more fonts but i will see if i can do the native BB fonts.

As others have stated, if I scroll down too quickly before the full images are loaded the email reverts to text format. I have left the default as text and use the toggle when I have an html email. Seems to me taht if I explicitly toggle into html view it shoudl stay there regardless of me scrolling. Is there any way to make it stay in html mode rather than reverting?

Wanted to reiterate that this is a great app, I noticed another bug in the beta, and don't want it to seem like I'm bashing...

Anyway, when viewing a link that is embedded in an email, if I highlight it, I can't select the link by hitting the enter key (nothing happens). And, if I click the trackwheel and click "get link", my phone freezes and crashes...

And a suggestion- it would be nice to have an option to have the links show the actual address.

So far so good with Empower html, but as mentioned before, the background color is something that might need to be changed, maybe have the option to customize.

yep

its there in an upcoming update..

ahovis · 06-19-2007, 07:23 AM

I installed the software with no problems but I never see any images. All I get is [image] placeholders. I have the option checked to show images but never see any even in small emails with only a single image. What am I doing wrong? I am on a BES.

ahovis, can u pls check these 2 things,

1. that you have latest 0.21 version (0.2 is an older version)
2. that when you visit any website using your blackberry browser can you see images in them. BES settings override settings on the device, so pls check out this one as well.

let us know, and we will take it up further..

hrom, its a known issue in this release, and we are working on this. Basically what happens is that if we have long emails and there is auto-more then scrolling beyond causes the view to switch to default bb text. On clicking Toggle HTML/Text you can switch back to HTML and then this issue is no longer there.. we intend to fix it in the next update..

Boy, yellow sure is getting a pounding around these parts.

ani · 06-19-2007, 10:22 AM

Ha Ha .. yes Larry, I can see that.

I think my sense of color is not the best so I have taken inputs from the community itself.. lets see how they like the new colors

wcberry · 06-19-2007, 11:00 AM

Just put the lastest .3 on and big improvement. Good job. The background colors or lack there of is great. Thanks.

LarryH · 06-19-2007, 11:05 AM

Was this "upgrade" posted in this thread? I missed it. Just as a minor quibble... it's a bit annoying to have to keep entering my name and email each time I download a new version. Not earth-shaking but it would be nice just to be taken to the dl link.

You dont have to enter your name or email address to download. Just go a little further down on the DL page.

LarryH · 06-19-2007, 11:12 AM

Oh. There.
