w00t - Egress v3.0.0 is out

Egress is the application I use to read RSS feeds directly on my PocketPC.  

Just spotted this - Egress version 3.0.0 is finally released!

What's new:

  • Major UI redesign including dpad seek. Click dpad-right or left to move to the next or previous channel. Click and hold dpad-right or left to move to the next or previous channel with unread items.

  • Web browser now selectable during the trial period
  • Only channels which contain podcasts are listed in the Manage Podcasts dialog and only items which contain podcasts (either cached or uncached) will be listed in the item list of the dialog
  • Context menu for image now changes if image is missing
