Tomdroid 0.5.0 released!

Written for Tomdroid by Olivier Bilodeau on 2011-09-06

I have the pleasure to announce Tomdroid's 0.5.0 release!

This [again] long overdue release is the culmination of several interesting things including (but not limited to): searching for notes, sending notes, an updated high-resolution icon and several parsing fixes and overall polish.

It is *not* intended to be an android market release yet as we would like to get feedback from people who reported note parsing errors and we would like to see some testing done in our little community first.
