Sounds like a concern to be brought up in the Touch beta forum.  But
its a little late now, to say the least.  It's going to be released in
its current form in a matter of weeks and I seriously doubt that there
will be major changes soon after it's released.

In its current form it's too buggy to do even this.  As someone said
previously, it only gives a bad impression.  It should be fixed to some
minimal standard or else scrapped for public release.

Wasn't SoftSqueeze designated 'beta' during its entire existence?  I
expect SqueezePlay on the desktop to suffer the same fate.
