It's taking a "little" longer than anticipated because I ended up rewriting the entire thing, from scratch. I think I hear someone asking why would I do such a silly thing. I've been meaning to add a few new features, and it's somewhat difficult with the current implementation. With the rewrite, adding additional features will be easier in the future. I am hoping that I can wrap things up by this weekend. There is a little bit of bad news. Version 2 is noticeably slower than version 1. Other people have reported the same thing, and it's something Google has to fix. Maybe they'll fix it when I release the update. eric
