Hi,
Electrum is now at the beta candidate before we make a release for general use.
Please beta test.
*** We have a new Czech translation (CS) thanks to 1byte! ***
New lite GUI on by default. This is for convenience and simplicity to allow you to use Bitcoin while doing other tasks like web-browsing. Electrum targets beginner users, and we want to streamline everything as much as possible from install, and startup to use. Bitcoin clients should be small and uncomplicated.
* Entering a number in the amount field will show the conversion amount.
* Clicking the balance label changes the currency between USD/GBP/EUR.
* Click the bottom left button to show the normal 'expert-mode' GUI.
* Address box has text completion for address book entries.
Currently only 1 account exists (top left button) called "Checking". Multiple accounts will be added in the next release.
