Ani,
Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to the folders.

I think v2 of the other is twice as fast

what i would like, and would probably be hard to do, is a look like the real email. Like in Opera Mini Beta 4. i really like that look, and if u could do that to email, zoom function n all. you would be god. Blackberry God Ani

Grab your copies at the usual urls -

OTA: www.getEmpower.com/emv.php
DM : www.getEmpower.com/emvzip.php

This release fixes two known issues we had with previous versions, namely
1. The view falling back to text-mode on longer emails during scrolling.
2. Space would only page once, and not more.

Some minor improvements here and there also been made to keep the program quick and fast..

Known issues -
1. Keyboard Shortcuts on 8100 to be implemented.
2. Some images do not show up correctly.

Sidenote for those 'new to Empower' :

Empower HTML Mail Viewer supports ALL OS version from 4.0.2 and above !
Empower integrates completely with your native email, so functions like View Attachments, Mark Unread, Save & File etc all work !

Let us know what you think of this release.

Thanks!

I am loving it

Vast improvement, and I am now sold on Empower, over the "other" product.

Competition is a great thing!

Thanks for all your effort.

Did you go there on your BB? That's the OTA link, and worked for me earlier today.

If viewing on your desktop, go to Empower!

Fantastic app! Thanks!

Try removing the 'ed' at the end of getempower.

I haven't seen this issue mentioned yet. I found it today when I sent a PIN message to another BB user and attached an address from my address book. He could not view it or save it. Even after toggling back to text. The only way to view it was uninstall the program. We tried to email it next, that did not work either. With other attachments, we can open them. This only occurs when we attach an address from our address book. This is on 8700, 8830 and 8300 models. Version .70.

Setup? Bug?

And put a ".com" in there somewhere. The correct ota download link is Empower!

Wow, this rocks.

.7 works great for me. Good job guys

I was surprised at my color choice, but the orange on black is so easy to read. I'm using that now!

Is this the same program that is on Handango? It's under HTML email for Blackberry.

Mortgage_It · 06-27-2007, 06:21 PM

It appears Empower and BlackberrySmart are similar programs...I did a search for empower vs blackberrysmart and came up empty handed. I would appreciate any feedback with pros and cons of one program vs the other - i am aware of the price difference and that part does not bother me one way or the other. thank you.

Mortgage_It · 06-27-2007, 06:26 PM

sorry for the double post, in addition, will empower or blackberrysmart solve the problem of being able to see yahoo emails on my blackberry? currently when i recieve a yahoo email, it is blank on the blackberry b/c it was sent in html i was told. it also appears to be a new problem, b/c it used to work fine.

there is a thread on here that compare the two this is a one sided thread just like the other product has its own thread.

Try both and see it for yourself. it is all about personal preference and wants.

I like both of them, but both of them have their pro and con. I want this in that program and I want that in this program, that's why I am still deciding which one to go to.

blakeatl · **OS:** 4.5.0.102

I upgraded to .7 and the bugs have been fixed. Great program.

A quick search would have yielded this thread:

In the top 10 search results for "empower"

I remember seeing that there will be spell check and folder functionality. When is this coming to the program? That would make it awesome! Keep up the good work.

Once the shortcuts are implemented, it should be a go

Yep, these two components are under different stages of development.. Amidst of all the emails, feature request and inquiries that we are getting, we are trying to keey our heads up cooking the goodies..

Spellcheck is in final stages of completion and we are holding out because the mail viewer is almost there.. a minor thing here, a minor there.. and then we will move onto bigger things - folders and SpellCheck.. just some time friend..
