Thanks for the encouragement...

After the last major push of effort, I got all the multi car stuff working and probably should have released it, but got over zealous and started on the huge UI update. Unfortunately to take a step forward the UI took a huge step back, and it was a real mess, then I ran out of time...

Your note motivated me.... Last night I stayed up until 4am and carved out a bunch of stuff.. add/remove/delete is all tested, renaming has been added. buttons have been replaced with menus (invoked with the menu button)...

The main screen now shows pinoin/spur, FDR and rollout for each car.

I fixed a memory leak for the database connection that was causing the program to crash at times finally.

That leaves me with just Copy/duplicate menu option so you can duplicate an existing configuration, similar to that I need the piece that converts your existing configuration into a saved configuration. Those couple things will take less then an hour to finish off as they are just special cases of saving...

The layout has been converted to table layout... and it appears to work much better now after being beaten with a mallet! Last night I tested it on Android 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.3 and it now works (and numbers are legible)! I was only testing with 3.7" screens, so the last part is to test some more screen sizes to ensure that everything is scaling properly.

If you have a device with a screen size smaller then 3.7" and have already bought the app please send me the details of your device (model/brand and screen size) and I will do my best to get it tested....I downloaded the new SDKs for Android 3.x (for tablets) and 4.0 for phones and tablets, but did not yet test on those devices. I will take a look at how it looks on them, but Tablet support will follow in the next version probably (unless its trival or just works .

Another day or two of testing and it will be release. Sorry for the delay.

I really appreciate the support.
