I happy to announce the start of beta-testing my new
Weather-Screensafer:

FEATURES
    
-  will show current weather
-  will show forecast for next 3 days
-  weather-data taken from www.wunderground.com
-  written portable to support 7.3  + 7.4 firmware-version
-  works for controller/touch/radio (tested with controller and
  squeezeplay)
  


INSTALL
It seems that the applet-installer has a timeout, which currently makes
it impossible to install this 1MB applet via a repository :(

In the meantime just 'download'
(www.stagessound.de/squeeze/Weather.zip) and 'install it manually'
(http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezePlay_Applets)

(you might als try the repository but currently this doesn't work for
me :( 
www.stagessound.de/bluegaspode.xml)

CONFIGURE
    
-  Go to 'Settings->Screen->Screensaver'
-  Here you will have to configure the location to show weather-data
  from ('Screensavers->Weather settings').
  This location will be passed to www.wunderground.com, so you might
  want to test there, whether your location will be recognized.
  The default is 'Berlin, Germany' so you always know how my mood is
  ...
-  Also in the screensafers-menu you will have to configure the
  weather-screensafer (most probably under 'when stopped').
  You can also preview the weather here by pressing 'Play' when the
  weather-screensaver is selected
-  The Weather-applet will also install itself under the
  'Extras'-menu, so you can start it whenever you want. (With 7.4
  firmware, you might have to activate the extras-menu under
  'settings->home menu')
  


OPEN TODOS
    
-  localization
-  consistent indents and comments in source-code :)
-  maybe showing some night-images when its night
