ZetaType Version 0.5.0 - bringing you Droid support and a lot more...

Another day, another ZetaType release.

The big feature of this release is support for multiple screen sizes including Droid.  This required a significant rewrite of the UI code and we hope that users new and old have a bug free experience!!!  If this is not the case please let us know by sending an email or commenting on our blog (http://blog.zetatype.com/) or google group (http://groups.google.com/group/zetatype)

We also took the opportunity while modifying the UI to make some minor functionality enhancements.  Most of you won't notice them but one example is that now the gaps between the main three buttons are not active.  This will hopefully increase typing accuracy.

Other changes include:
- the addition of a convenience button on the Info page to take you directly to the relevant settings screen so that you can enable Zeta with one click.
- Configurable vibration mode
- Ability to turn off full screen mode in landscape.  As Zetatype is so slim you may find that you can work in landscape without full screen mode enabled (the default).  We have turned off full screen mode by default but if you don't like it you can turn it on again by just adjusting the ZetaType settings (see the Info App for details)
- Numerous super subtle logical and intermittent bugs

What are we working on next?

Well the next big project is to add Text prediction.  This is something we put off for a number of weeks while working on some basic core development.  We are now focussing on this fully again.  However, we do not want to launch this until we have made significant progress (and it can be turned on and off easily!).  In the meantime, we will likely release some smaller (but important) features and bug fixes.

Features that are likely to be released next are a new set of symbols by pressing the third key (it may have slightly different behaviour from the first two) and long press for space and delete but this is not 100% confirmed.  As always the exact order is dictated by feedback from our users.

TIP - If you visit http://blog.zetatype.com you will see a Application Status bar on the right hand side.  This will summarize current functionality and what is currently being worked on.
