Default MultiIE 3.0 Released

http://www.multiie.info/

MultiIE, one of the first "multiple-IE-window" enhancements for PIE, has been updated today to version 3.0. It includes a whole slew of features, including WM2003 support, URL building, Google search, tabs, and more.



This screenshot is from Arne's post on the subject, because the MultiIE page itself is still being updated. He reports that the download links are up, though.

Does anyone know how registration is supposed to work on this version? I tried loading it overtop version 2.0 (which was registered) and it wasn't registered.

I then uninstalled it and installed just 3.0 and tried my codes -- no go.

I've sent an email as requested on the site, but it seems odd that you can't just update a registered version. Unless they're going to ask for an upgrade fee (hope not).

If you scroll down on the multiIE page you have this:

-----------------------------
For a limited time only, a free upgrade is available for all existing MultiIE users.
-----------------------------

& this

-----------------------------
To upgrade send your userid/license code:
Request upgrade via email
-----------------------------

Seems like the user/serail no registration is different from the previous version.

I gave it a whirl. I hadn't used other recent versions, but it seemed a bit sluggish. But for all the features it adds, that might be the price that needs to be paid.

I would like to note, for others sake, that I had problems when I first installed it while I still had an expired trial of Spb Pocket Plus installed. I removed PocketPlus (the whole thing, as it was expired; might have worked to just disable the Internet Explorer feature), and reinstalled MultiIE, and it works.

Thanks bdeli. I saw the "send us the userid/licence code", but must have missed the "for a limited time..." lines.

My info is off...

It's the best you can add to your PIE!!! I love it since version 1 and it's really worth the money!
If you are a Spb Pocket Plus User you don't need to uninstall it at all but it's enough if you disable the PIE feature of Pocket Plus!

I've used it on my eg-800 ppc2000 with 3.8 " screen and in full screen mode, it is marvelous. I might have to purchase it, very good investment to maximize screen real estate.

Send a message via AIM to arebelspy

The rotation thing seems to make my right half of the screen just black.. then you can use stretch image to fit, but then its all distorted..

Did anyone that has nyditot 3.22 get the rotate on the fly thing working well?

I had to disable the pie part of pocket plus as well.

Ok, it says that with Nyditot, you don't need to soft reset to change it landscape, but everytime I hit the rotate screen option, Nyditot wants me to soft reset. What I'm doing wrong? :?:
