Bugs:

• Fixed a crash when accessing routes with no existing route available
• Fixed a bug where you could navigate the coordinate-field in the waypoint-dialog and enter free text.
• Removed dictionary/content-assist in some textfields where it just didn’t make sense
• If you only had one CacheDB and that wasn’t selected, the menu-option needed to select it was grayed out.
• Fling-Gesture on Main-Page wasn’t always recognized correctly with Froyo on Desire.
• Fixed a bug where the TB-date was displayed incorrectly on some systems.
• Fixed a bug where the background-color on some devices (manufacturer specific themes) would differ from the standard and cause some invisble gui-elements to become slightly visible .
