Thread: FreeICE 2.0 Alpha 8.2 coming on the 28th October

Just a little heads up..

8.2 Alpha is ready and will be released this Friday on the 28th October. It comes with lots of bug fixes, DAB support (Venice5 Slave) and a brand new media browser. I will upload a video tonight of it in it's full glory :-)

for now a picture will have to suffice...



I think Alpha 8.2 marks a milestone within FreeICE and it's content. I do think it's now fully usable in the car and brings afew bits to the car that haven't been seen before.
