Is there a built in way for it to automatically update the application when you have a new update available? Or is this only available through the Android market?

If you re-compile the app, it won't know that you have created a newer version. However, v1.5 does allow you to enter the most recent version number in your control panel. If you have a most recent version in your control panel, the app will check this and see if it's the latest release. If not, it will display a message or a webpage that you provide. The iPhone version of this is nearly done. The Android version will be after Thanksgiving - a few weeks probably. Doesn't take us long to port from iPhone to Android and we always start with the iPhone version because our audience is still more interested in iPhone vs. Android about 10-1.

Look forward to the new v1.5. Comments I am pc based with no Mac experience, so I'll leave that to the other testers on the site. Look forward to the new v1.5.
