I seems normal for the app to switch to Potrait mode if you hold the phone in that orientation even though your keyboard is open.
Just noticed that you can't stop the search, though it never occured to me to stop the search until you mntioned it.

I'm looking through the code in garage trying to figure out how to make some changes. I notice that grabGesture is called for swipe gestures in the InfiniteScrollViewer object but it seems to be connected only to a function to print out the type of gesture (which i can't see actually happening if i run from console). Is this dead/test code?

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

Needs icon in App Manager (48x48 iirc)

Label for what to search selection box

Thank you for making this app available. Although I already have a couple of Bible apps on my N900 (thanks to Garnet VM), there is one translation that I am interested in obtaining and I wonder if it is available on this program. It is called "The New American Bible". It is produced by the Catholic church. Although I do not adhere to the doctrines of that church (and this is not the place to discuss doctrine), I understand that this translation is one of the most accurate translations of the original Greek. I learned that after reading this book:
"Truth in Translation: Accuracy and Bias in English Translations of the New Testament"
I am definitely going to buy me a copy for my library, but it would nice to have it in my pocket for quick reference.

I'll try to figure out the icon issue.
Edit: Seems to suggest here that gestures work specifically on Maemo. Is it possible this is just wrongly-implemented?

Flandry, is there a way to promote a new version of a package to extras-testing without losing the karma? I'd like to push the new version, but don't want to lose the votes that have already been cast.

I'd vote up the new version, though.

I had trouble finding Katana in App Manager. I realize the lack of a Religion category makes categorizing it hard. I noticed the Quran is in "Educational" which seems to be the best place for Bible given the limited options. Thoughts?
My comments on the version in Testing (i will look into fixing these myself as time permits, but some will probably be easier for original dev to fix):
Rather than vote down due to search i just didn't cast a vote.
I like the simple, uncluttered presentation, and the option to show one verse per line is nice. I think i will be using this instead of Rapier for Sunday school now. Good work.
Edit: When trying to switch back to katana now, it insists on rotating to portrait mode. I have the keyboard open and the phone app closed. Is this normal?
