Versions
2009-10-26 11:00 v0.5.4
-AMS changes:
    * The AMS supports folders.
    * Virtual keyboards and Freetype setup are now configured in the GUI, not in the .ini.
-UI changes:
    * There's a Danzeff-style virtual keyboard available now.
    * The semichordal board supports Greek and Cyrillic scripts
    * The X/O keys are now fully switchable system-wide
    * The Danzeff and semichordal boards support a 'smart display' feature, in which they move out of the way of the active input area in large text boxes.
    * Built-in font now supports basic Cyrillic characters in Unicode range 0x0400 to 0x045f (should support Russian, Ukrainian, Macedonian, Byelorussian).
    * The FreeType font system now supports all three fonts (proportional, monospace,system) and bold, italic, bold/italic faces for all three, in addition to a utility
font for speeding up certain system GUI displays, a 'fallback font' useful for large Han (CJK) fonts, and uses the FreeType portable cache manager to speed
rendering and allow loading much larger font files than previously.
- Bug fixes:
    * Resolve bug of media playback via "file://" URL. We-Travel voice playback bug should be fixed.
    * There are fixes to network setup that *should* prevent unrecoverable network dropout issue in previous builds. Generally, reconnecting from the Wifi Manager
midlet should now work. Test users please report if this is the case.
