PocketWeather 1.2.4 Now Available!

Jan 7, 2006 | blog

SBSH Software has released PocketWeather 1.2.4 which is mainly a bug fix to all 1.2.x releases.

The list of fixes includes:

  • Removed “Display” tab from setup – moved location rotation to general setup tab
  • Corrected issue where today screen was not drawing/redrawing under certain conditions
  • Removed startup notification service which was causing errors on WM2005 devices when the OS was attempting to run pwcmstub.exe too early.
  • Added better shutdown handling so that in future, if installing while an updating process is taking place should cause the updater to terminate to avoid the “in-use” warning/error
  • Update/refresh process now handled by smaller pwupdater.exe
  • Corrected 1st January current condition bug
  • Added earthquake details
  • Corrected earthquake map calibration to better position reporting quakes
  • More translation work for setup pages

Treo 700w – No MSFP!

Jan 5, 2006 | blog

According to Jason Landridge, the Treo 700w does not include the Messaging and Security Feature Pack (aka AKU v2.0) in it’s shipping form right now. The current configuration does however connect with Exchange Server for Always Up To Date (AUTD) synchronization. It also should support the original Exchange 2003 “push-mail” solution, where the Exchange server would send an SMS message to the device to trigger an AUTD sync that would pull any new email to the device.

Of course, since the device is Windows Mobile, Verizon could at any time release an AKU 2.0 update for the Treo 700w that would include the MSFP functionality.
