I'm fairly certain I read a post of his somewhere apologizing for delay but he was having some personal issues. Fair enough.

yea I think thats mentioned in the forum cos the main comments section on the site, theres no mentions from him at all just lots of people complaining HEAVILY for an update...

yea...like paying money for a product means there HAS TO AWAYS be updates...christ thats nearly as bad as the "Phone makers MUST give us updates cos we paid for it" crap...

I for one wouldnt mind an update but im not taking it as read that cos I paid that there HAS to be one...

though I would like it if there wasn't that dock glitch when you remove notification bar..
 
The dock glitch can be annoying but other than that, no problems.

It was always exciting find out what is new in each release, but Its not essential for me it is updated.
 
Well its just one version with an unlock key. Indeed paying only unlocks extra functionality within the same application.

yea, you knew what I meant though lol

nobody seems to be compaining so much when its free, they would just 'like' an update...where as those who paid JUST for the widgets and resizing seem to 'demand' an update...and fede's first born...and his mortgage...and his soul (or is that just bunnisher ;)) haha
 
The new update has just been released - Only thing I have noticed so far is 2 new transitions effects.
 
Oh yes. Wasn't there this morning.

New Gmail widget for + users
New Flip and Rotate transition
Facebook login now done through facebook app
Twitter widget bug fix

flip and rotate were already in 0.8.3 version though? :confused:

New style of flip, it's actually like flipping your deck card while playing Blackjack, very cool looking if you have multiple widgets of the same size (I did this with doubletwist and winamp 4x1 widgets).

Fede's falling behind in features that many other launchers has nowadays (Go Launcher, ADW, Open Home, etc), hopefully his rewrite will catch up and maybe even blow the others out of the water with new features.

the new transitions kinda suck....to be fair I gave up using transitions after I did my Star Trek like theme on the Desire..

I prefer straight slide....I dont have my screen set up anymore to take use of "No Notification" bar...but if anyone is using the new .4 version and use no bar can you tell me if theres still a dock issue...

its like hit an miss with it sometimes lol
 
Too early to tell about dock. I love cube transition.

What features do other launchers have that I'm missing out on?
 
Cube is my transition of choice too. :)

The 'dock issue' .... is that where the whole screen drops down and you lose the bottom half of the dock? Have not seen the bug since the update yesterday. Maybe it is fixed?

What I have noticed though is that the notification bar appears more often even if hidden is ticked. It now shows up in my lockscreen which I like as I can now see battery levels etc
 
Bugs I often have with LP others don't seem to have..

Facebook updates sometimes show as Twitter updates in Friends widget.

Often the Friends Widget just stops updating and sits on 'loading...' which needs a force Close to get it to start updating again :-/
 
Shame. I still havent had it.

There was another update today. Just some minor bug fixes. Not sure what they were now.
