specify update time

I'd also like to see an option to set a specific time of day for the app to look for new episodes.

Thanks for your work.

Hi snooze,

This one has been requested before, but I'm curious why you'd like to schedule them for a specific time.

I was thinking about adding a 'Only download when charging' option, would that suffice?

Let me know,
I can go either way, but the charging thing seems simpler from both the code and user perspective, if it accomplishes the same goal (not killing battery, etc).

"Download while charging" would work just as well. The reason I ask is because I'd like it to download while I'm sleeping so it won't compete for bandwidth while I'm using it. My phone doesn't have wi-fi & I use your "download over celluar" setting.

Great, I'll get that in today as well.

It's interesting to hear that the cellular downloads are working for you (it works for me on TMobile as well). There are carriers, I guess, that cap the download size and some users are having issues using it. I'm working on a desktop download solution that bypasses it, but it will require a small app to sit on the desktop that talks to the berry.

At any rate, keep the suggestions coming!
