Go to the link address where he says "all are welcome". The other links seem to be busted.
It opens a thread in their forum and the link is at the bottom of the first post, right above the sig. (You have to be registered on their forum.)
I just downloaded it.

Trident if you are referring to me.....I am already a registered member from the preivous versions.....just waiting for the final release .....right now pocketshield and the tp in general are working just fine, it took awhile to get the phone just the way I want it..

....I dont want to mess things up with the beta testing version at this time.

Actually, I was referring to the OP and the post that was after that one (that has since been deleted) that noted that the links weren't working. I just posted some (very similar) links to get people to the Beta Forum.

This is a fabulous version. I love the see through lock shield into your today screen. As everyone knows I am a big fan of Pocket Shield and this version is awesome!

Right now...the only notifications you get on the pocketshield is icons...so lets say you get a text or email.

Well...you first have to unlock the shield to get the today screen to check the text/email notification bubble/popup or whatever.

When the release is out or try the beta version now..you can see through the shield and not have to unlock to see who left the text/email..etc it is a minor thing but for me...i recieve alot of email/text and now it is nice not to keep unlocking just to see who or what left the text/email and if I need to reply right away or if it is no big deal and it can wait.
