Correct. I am not saying the program isn't without flaws, I am just saying that for me and the way I use it and the city I search with does in fact work correctly. The "functions" are working but the "database" may be lacking..if that helps any. Is that a problem, yes I believe so. But for all intensive purposes, the program "works for me".

I'm still unhappy about the buggy autosuggest. That would be a great feature if it worked properly. Two days before this upgrade came out I was just thinking, why doesn't this save your search history...

Of course it is, it is a HUGE problem for anybody looking for a city that was always there before & has now ceased to exist. To say the functtion works correctly is semantics (tell that to somebody whoes city disappeared from the database), it's certainly NOT working correctly if it can't find your city but it could two weeks ago before the "upgrade"

Mine didn't prompt me to upgrade either but the "Client Update Available" wasn't grayed out like usual. I went ahead and upgraded. I don't like that I can't switch Location from the home screen. Locate Me says it doesn't work but it does give me my current location. Other than that it seems to be working just fine.

By the way I have the previous cab. If anyone wants me to post it let me know.
