Unit Converter becomes Converter Pro
As the free Unit Converter application has been downloaded more than 17000 times from GetJar by now, I felt something needed to be done, so there will soon be a commercial version called Converter Pro. It can convert between many more units than Unit Converter, all in all ~220 different units, so I had to split lists up in unit groups etc. It of course also converts between number bases like Unit Converter does.
It's almost completed, but there are remaining issues with performance (phones don't like long option lists) and compatibility (so far only for MIDP 2.0, and it might stay that way).
The free version at GetJar will remain free.
I will post here when it's available. See below for a teaser:
