Rey,
Beautiful job on the uploading action work.  Installed beta over the old app that
was holding 31 mostly unsynced photos in the library all stuck on one date.  Matt
thought the new install would kill the old photos held in the old app.

The beta uploaded all 31 and straightened out the dates.  Fast.  3 batches of 2-4
new photos uploaded perfectly.  The third upload time-out failed 4 times.
Downloaded a 25mb podcast test.  Retried.  Upload successful.

Nice that it will hold a series of photos for upload till near wifi.

1. Suggestion - move upload button OR 'back to map' mini logo.  They are on top of
each other.  Had to complete shut down app to get back to the whole map.  

Location of 'upload' could be at top like you have it (out of the way of the map)
center-right.  But not so far right that it interferes with the app's three tabs on
the right.  Or, it could be bottom right (again keeping away from the app's tabs).
This location might mirror the 'send' tab location on the identify and send page.

I do like your using the word 'upload' over the word 'snyc.'

2.  Send page buttons.  Thank you for a second option to cancel!  In bright sunlight
the Send button can look grayed out in comparison to the Cancel button - IE: an
unavailable option.  [sendpage.jpg enclosed]   I like the green color and
transparency very much.  Maybe make the opaque orange Cancel button equally
transparent as well; and find a way to punch up the send button without losing the
nice green and transparency.  If it doesn't look too gauche try using the orange
color of the other button for the text "SEND."

3. Look for a bug in the camera page. a) Something is messing with the camera's
gyro.  Easily slips into up side down.  Like looking into a mirror image trying to
chase down a branch.  Or, If taking a photo of a landscape the sky would be at the
bottom.  [Could the issue be tied in to the fact that you fixed the app's ability to
render both landscape and portrait images better?]  b) The camera page was losing
its center.  White line or springboard background showing along right edge.
[campagecenter.jpg enclosed]  Back to normal today.  

4. Will crash on map page.  Moving around too fast, or returning to map page.


I think #1 should be done before release.  And, if #2 is simple, maybe that, too.

Thank you.
