Forum additions (July 14, 2008) 0 comments
As the new web site evolves, the need is becoming greater for some feedback from its users. Along those lines, a new forum has been created to help you voice any suggestions or comments related to the site itself (as opposed to any of the products available on it).
There are already a couple of discussions open there, and more are welcome.
CacheMate - Award Nomination (July 11, 2008) 0 comments
CacheMate has been nominated for Smartphone & Pocket PC Magazine's Best Software Awards 2008. This is actually the second time that it's been nominated, but perhaps it will do better this time around, now that Windows Smartphone devices are supported as well.
Wish us luck!
Mailing list update (July 7, 2008) 0 comments
It looks like the updates mailing list is finally up and running properly. If you subscribed to the mailing list after the new site was brought online, but are not currently subscribed, feel free to re-subscribe at this time. You can check and change your subscription status on the site through your personal control panel.
Auto-subscribing, triggered on an opt-in basis by purchases, isn't currently active. It will soon be up and running as well, though.
Welcome to Smittyware.com v2.0! (July 1, 2008) 0 comments
The company isn't changing much, but the site certainly has.
First and foremost is the unified login system for all of the site features. Once you have created an account on the site, that one login will give you access to our forums, support desk, and updates mailing list. Also, if you add your order numbers to the account, any future email changes here on the site will propagate to those orders, so that everything will be kept up to date with one change. That feature works with mailing list subscriptions as well.
Another improvement is that the site now has a real issue tracking system. The forums in the previous incarnation of the site seemed primarily used for that sort of thing, but fell a little short and would have been outgrown in the near future. A "support desk" is available, as well as viewing of bug fix and enhacnement progress, so that you can see upcoming changes as they happen.
Last, but not least... Twitter.com users may be happy to know that site updates are now visible there. If you have an account with that site, you can find those updates here.
CacheMate updates for Windows Mobile (June 1, 2008) 0 comments
New CacheMate versions for Pocket PC (1.3.3) and Windows Smartphone (1.0.5) devices were released today. Both include the ability to copy records between databases, as well as a few list view and filter enhancements.
The Pocket PC release adds the ability to clear a database before importing records, as well as a fix for keyboard navigation of the record view. The smartphone release fixes a timezone issue in exported GPX files.
Release - CacheMate 1.0.4 (WM Smartphone) (April 20, 2008) 0 comments
This release improves support for Geocaching.com's travel bugs and child waypoints. It includes other fixes and enhancements as well, including a satellite count display in CacheNav. Fields that are not strictly numeric now default to alphanumeric so that they work correctly on certain WM6 devices that, for some reason, interpret a numeric default mode as a restriction (T-Mobile Dash, I'm talking to you).
This is also the first release that is properly signed, which means that it should now install and run on locked phones! It would be very interesting if locked Blackjack II and Q9h devices will now work with it, when it comes to GPS functionality, or if that is a different sort of lock-down. If you have such a device to test with, please drop a line with the results.
The first add-on export plugins for this version of CacheMate have also been released. They add support for TomTom, MS Pocket Streets, and OziExplorer WPT files (for programs such as gpsVP, which use that format).
