- <Q12> "I have a good idea to improve Abroad!"
- <A12> The followings are what I am considering. (Some will appear
- but some will not.) If you have other suggestions, please mail me.
-
- (1) world clock alarm (*)
- (2) time conversion among cities (**)
- (3) handle "Unit Conversion" data as database to be backuped (**)
- (4) make "Unit Conversion" data editable (**)
-
- I would like to make size-diminished version when Abroad! becomes
- fully updated. I think I delete informations for "Language" "Area
- Code (except capital or such)" and "ATT access number" and only
- support English, as string data in World Clock require large memory.
- If you have any suggestions, please mail me.
-
- ***: most important
- ** : more important
- * : important
-
- I do not prepare the function that changes system time within Abroad!,
- as it may cause the loss of data (of other apps) at hotsync.
