Thank you very much for testing that! Until I find a better solution, for now I will switch all text boxes to be multi line - not ideal but at least something.
I released version 2.4 with this change in it so if you want you can give it a try. It is available on the official BeyondPod Release Page. Thank you again for your help!

I attached a small app to this post - it has 3 text boxes (2 set for for text and 1 set for numeric). Can you see if that one works. This one is build specifically for WM6 and uses CF.
Just copy the app (it is only 8k) somewhere on your device and run it.
I really appreciate your help!

Thank you for helping me with this.

I just found that HTC Vox has the same problem (the keyboard is arranged in the same manner). I am really puzzled why would that happen. I am guessing that the Compact Framework gets confused by the different keyboard arrangement. Do you by any chance have any other Compact Framework applications that you can try to see if this is a Compact Framework problem or local problem in BeyondPod. I asked around and I am still waiting for a response.

In a mean time, you can restore the defaults by replacing your TrackState.xml file with the one I attached to this post, (or alternatively you can delete all files in the BeyondPod installation directory and then reinstall 2.4). There are some OPML files in the OPML directory that you can import.

Thank you again.

Thanks Gerry. HTC Cavalier was also the issue in my other report. Does that happen in every field you type, or just this one?. Also (assuming you use version 2.3) can you try to create a new category (select a feed, and then Menu -> Manage Feeds -> Edit Feed, scroll to "Manage Categories" link and click on it. Then Menu->New Category) - see if typing there works correctly.

Also, I just built a custom release of the upcoming version 2.4 that has some code to (may be) prevent that. If you have time, can you please try it. It is available on the BeyondPod BETA download page: BeyondPod 2.4 RC

Thank you for reporting that. This is interesting. I have tried it on several qwerty smart phones and pocket PCs (T-Mobile DASH, Palm Treo) and I have never seen that problem . What device are you using? What screen/field are you trying to type into? I actually did get a report once of a similar problem but never got a reply back so was not sure if that was a real problem. I would relay like to solve that issue, but will need help from somebody with such a device to try couple of workarounds.

Version 2.4 of BeyondPod was released on CodePlex http://www.codeplex.com/BeyondPod

BeyondPod allows you to subscribe to RSS feeds, view feed content, download and play podcasts directly from your mobile device.

New version of BeyondPod, a podcast player for Windows Mobile Smartphones and Pocket PC, is available for free download from http://www.ivware.com/BeyondPod

I am looking for people interested in beta testing an application for managing and playing podcasts on Windows mobile 5.0 Smartphone and Pocket PCs. This application lets you browse your existing podcasts on the device, remembers how much you listened of each one (so you can easily switch/resume from one feed to another or delete the played ones).
If you listen to podcasts on your Smartphone or Pocket PC, want to try it out and help with some feedback, the latest BETA is available here.
