Slacker Updated to 2.0.39
Slacker is now at 2.0.39...
found it on my own but did a search and found crackberry just got this too.
here is the change list from crackberry:
# Improved battery life up to 2x (over previous versions) while streaming (Slacker has seen Storm devices playing up to 9 hours over 3G with this build)
# Improved usability enhancements to the interface, including a "Home" button to quickly access the station list
# Added ability to toggle the explicit content filter (on/off) from the main menu
# Addressed an issue where pausing a song for an extended period of time did not properly resume playback
# Addressed an issue where phone calls or message alerts would prevent playback from resuming properly for some listeners
Edit:
my own findings also add:
-new boot screen
-faster boot time
-somewhat tweaked interface (new banner)
- if u ever saw the about screen, it is now easier to read and more detailed
-new enhancements to play screen including:
--larger album art
--larger text for song and artist
--cleaner looking play pause etc buttons
--home icon
--much faster loading of songs (for me almost instantaneous)
will report back if i find anything else
