Beta test version 0.1.9b of the HotPaw Guitar Tuner application for
Palm Tungsten T/T2/C model handhelds is now available here:
http://www.hotpaw.com/rhn/hotpaw/beta/
This release adds a mode which locks to a single string of the guitar,
in addition to the string auto-detect mode. The frequency readout
jitter has been reduced, and the strobe tuner window uses a better color.
One test user replied that he could tune his guitar with this PalmOS
application as accurately as with his Korg rackmount tuner.
Feedback and comments are welcome! Thanks.
