    I should use this opportunity to thank all beta testers especially those who have commented, reported bugs and/or asked for additional useful features.

    Your efforts have helped improving ShortcutMe and since ShortcutMe has free software upgrade policy, your efforts will benefit existing ShortcutMe users.

    Even that giving out ShortcutMe's license (valued $4.99) doesn't match even 10 minutes of your time beta testing/posting feedbacks, it is the minimum thing I can do to thank you.

    Could beta testers (who have posted in beta testing thread) please do the followings (to get a free ShortcutMe license):

    1- Post a comment here in this thread.
    2- Send email (using the same email account you used when you offered to become beta tester) to support at fonware dot ca with

    Subject:
    ShortcutMe license for beta tester

    Body:
    - Your crackberry username/nickname
    - Your BlackBerry PIN
    - Your BlackBerry model


    (Those beta testers who already had ShortcutMe license, may also get one free license for their friend/partner/family member.)


    Thanks again to all beta testers.

    Edit: Email address was support at fonware dot ca

    As I said in the Pearl forum, this soo is awesome. I have used it with Bolt Browser, Google Maps, Trapster, and many other apps. Nice workaround for those of us that also use Vlingo and still want to be able to launch apps with our shortcut buttons. I love being able to launch Trapster and Google Maps traffic with just a touch of the button while i'm driving.
    Awesome app, great job!

    I got 4 emails from users asking me to add screen capture feature to ShortcutMe. So I added it.

    With ShortcutMe 3.2.1.1 you can capture screenshots, then email or MMS it, or just keep it on the uSD card.

    Capturing screenshot can be done anytime by for example double clicking a convenience key or clicking ConvKey + S + S.

    You can also set the quality of the produced screenshot image (0-100, 100 being the best quality). This will be useful to create smaller files that can easier be sent by email or MMS.

    I am alpha testing 3.2.1.1. Will soon make it available for download on OTA beta testing link and then on Mobihand.

    3.2.1.1 is now on the beta test OTA link.

    Changes comparing to V3.2.1.0:

    - Capture screenshots from other programs or Blackberry screens.
    It allows you to email the screenshot, MMS it, send it to MySpace, FaceBook, Messanger contact.

    It allows you to set the quality of the screenshot image so that you can control the created file size.

    How to take screenshot: Whenever you want to take a screenshot, for example double click the convenience key to take a screenshot (or if you want you can set ShortcutMe to take screenshot when you click Conv.Key + one or more chars).

    How to create a shortcut:
    AppName = Screenshot
    Parameter = X
    where X is the quality of the captured image.
    X is a value between 10 and 100.
    100: Best picture quality, big file.
    10: Low picture quality, small file.

    Shortcuts are stored in the SDCard/ directory (image_y.jpg, y=1,2,3,4,5)

    Please download/test and report.

    FYI:
    I am working on adding a new feature where ShortcutMe users can specify 5 cities and see the current weather conditions plus 5 days forecast for all of those 5 cities.

    Are you interested?

    ShortcutMe 3.2.1.2 is now on the OTA link

    Changes comparing to 3.2.1.1:

    - Allows you to create shortcuts to Weather forecast (4 days) and current conditions for up to 4 cities.

    As usual you can launch it either by multiple clicking the conv. key, or conv.Key plus 1 or more shortcut chars
    -When you see the forecast for the first city, you can press Menu key to see the weather forecast for other cities too.

    AppName: Weather
    Parameter: Press the "Set Parameter ..." button to see help about how to set parameter for Weather
    (let me know what you think about that help text. Is it clear enough? What should be added? Even do you suggest to be added to that text? What should the text be? I want to reduce # of emails sent to support).

    love the ease of getting around app to app, not having to go back back back to home screen to get what I want.

    Do you have to reset the convenience clicks when upgrading to new version?

    Weather addition is fantastic

    wow! I don't know when you came up with the screenshot feature, but it works nice! could be very useful in the future. I have a weather app on my main screen, but I'll play around with this weather feature too
