Does anybody have a list of changes since the last version, since there doesn't seem to be any information anywhere on their site and the latest version on the site looks pretty much like the one on my phone (though there's no 'About' menu option for me to check).

Ta! :-)

I don't know what's updated since I only recently purchased v2 and I never had v1. However, I do know this is an excellent tool. I have created a database to track my mileage and expenses and being able to do it on my i600 is so convenient. Additionally, I use MS Access to connect to my PC-based synchronized copy and then run reports.

This product actually sealed the deal for me when I was debating whether or not to move from a Pocket PC to a smartphone.
