Being in Australia I am very interested in have the weather from BOM, but you are right this is a very small section of the user group. Are you able to release this as a version as an Australian SDT. I only use the weather feature and the ability to customise the display for the Boom is a must. -- vdeknock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ vdeknock's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4467 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
