There are still not many applications out there with the graphics completely remade to be able to take advantage of the new generation of Pocket PCs with a VGA (480x640 pixels) display, four times the resolution of a standard device with a QVGA (240x320 pixels) display. The final result stunned even myself once I saw it running on my Pocket PC. Hope you'll appreciate the effort.
The list of improvements focuses on graphics, but there are also some new useful features.

• Brand new VGA graphics for the pleasure of your eyes.
  
• Added the complete Dutch translation thanks to Henko Gardebroek.
  
• New Skin Strip feature: added the ability to use a set of custom textures as a background skin for all the menus.
  
  
• Finally I've been able to add the best quality pictures of San Marino, Monaco and Vatican Euro coins.
  
• Replaced the previous Interface mirror mode with a more useful interface mode designed for left-handers.
  
  
• Higher resolution sound effects provided in the VGA version only.
• Initial language autodetect and selection based on device locale.
• Collection files now stored in the folder "\My Documents\Collections" for easier and safer synchronization.
  
• Improvements to the QVGA version graphics.
  

This release marks the big re-launch of Ecpc projecting it into the Shareware world thanks to the new registration model substituting the previous Demo/Full version distribution model and becoming even more friendly for the casual user due to the fact that the Unregistered version is time unlimited and can be used as a Viewer for any collection file saved with the Registered version.
Also the list of improvements speaks for itself, starting from the long awaited French translation.

• Adopted the Shareware distribution model and converted the previous Demo version to a Time Unlimited Viewer.
  
• Added the complete French translation thanks to Richard Davy.
  
• Integration of the Personal and Swap list collection files by adding a Doubles parameter in the National Side Menu, although it's still possible to keep them separated.
  
• User interface improvements with extended menus, X button for quick close and more intuitive icons in the Euro Table Menu.
  
• Added Pop up menus to quickly select countries and coins.
  
  
• Experimental cool Interface mirror mode, useful for left-handers just like me.
  
  
• Included 2004 and 2005 as years of issue and updated data about Euro coins circulation status according to the information provided by forums and expert collectors.
• Updated the online documentation.
  
• Minor bug fixes and code improvements to pave the way for a Ecpc fully multiplatform.
  

The third revision of Ecpc includes the complete Portuguese translation and boasts some new useful features and enhancements suggested by users about both usability and graphics issues, making the experience of Euro coins collectors on the go even more pleasant and funny.
