Hi folks!

I have been working on a free Windows 8 app (Bitcoin Calculator) for a while now. And today I can announce that it's released on the Windows Store!

URL to the store: http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/app/bitcoin-calculator/f2bc71be-dd4a-4d82-ae98-32db5864a594

App description:
Bitcoin Calculator is an app that uses the current Bitcoin difficulty rate and your hash rate with the current currency exchange rate to calculate your profits when mining bitcoins.

Currently the app is translated (all except error messages and appbar) to Swedish language (English (en-US) is the main language) but more languages will make it there if the community wants it and can help me with translations.
If you have any suggestions for the app, reply on this thread or pm me.

I will continue to work on the app with more functions, here is my TODO list:
0.2.x:
  • Add a live tile act more live with updates in the background
  • Bug fix: Translation for the appbar isn't working
0.3.x:
  • Add user options for changing the the value of currency exchange info (Buy, Sell, Last, Average)
