- o Added a button based UI for Deal/Hit, Stand, Double and Split. These are
- dynamic buttons, in that they will only be active for valid actions.

- *************************** Beta Version 0.6 *******************************
- ****************************************************************************
-
- ***************
- * BUG NOTICES *
- ***************
- ****************************************************************************
- Bug 0.6-100:
- This Beta version of Blackjack has a known bug that causes the Pilot
- to lock up after running HotSync then immediately running Blackjack
- again. Note this does NOT cause data loss.
- Fix:
- If the Pilot is locked up, you need to reset it by using a paper clip
- and inserting it into the Reset hole on the back of your Pilot.
- Work around:
- Do not run Blackjack immediately after performing a HotSync. Run another
- application first, then run Blackjack.
