I have released the first beta version of Stackz 07.
Please download it from >>this<< (http://www.stackz.com/latest0705/theLatestVersion.htm) page.
There will be no more fundamental changes, this is the final content of Stackz 07. Since there were considerable changes, some features may not work as expected anymore... please test this version therefore as much as you can!
Any comment is welcome.

Hi Chris,
I tried Stackz 07 out last night, and I think it's looking great. A couple of things I noticed: the [## cards left] text on the test window does not update when you move onto the next card; and when you insert a new lesson the window that shows all your stacks starts smooth scrolling downwards until it reaches the last lesson, then smooth scrolls up again.
Dear Stacks Team,
Thank you for sending me an email. I would definitely try this one out.
Are there any upgrades by the way for pocket stackz?
Regards,
Joel
