Hey Mark,

I've had limited success with the apps trigger. It works fine turning
off data when I'm reading a book in Aldiko but when its meant to
maintain connection when running meebo it doesn't, even with the meebo
notification always up.

Otherwise I want to say that your app is great. I updated to 1.8.7
today from 1.7.7 annd there was a huge difference in performance, very
nice. I'd say jd features should be in every mobile OS but I don't
want to brankrupt you :p

Also I'm curious if it would be possible eventually to detect when an
app needs internet and enable data for it automatically, then turn it
off when it was done.

Ah, thanks! Balsamic words for my bitter mood :)
Most probably meebo doesn't properly register the notification (it's
an API introduced in Eclair); other apps have the same problem
(notably last.fm), so I'll probably change the way the trigger works
so that it catches all services - my understanding is that the
majority of apps don't properly stop their services (thus making the
trigger useless for them) but I might be mistaken; your feedback will
clear this out!
