Yep, that search input has got a few flaws, and the drop down triangle is another one - consider it gone in the next release! Thanks Dom!

So that's what you've been doing with yourself!! Sexy, snappy and a delight to navigate around. The search is great (although the search icon suggests there's some drop down function). The screen is beautifully uncluttered - there's plenty of room on our little 12" mac. Maybe the 3 images that always appear at the top of the main UI screen could have a little more room... Well done, Sime!! Exciting stuff. Wow!!! So that’s what you’ve been doing with yourself!!

(disclaimer - Tjeerd is my neighbour and has no option but to say cool). Thanks Rach! I'm also impressed - an old PC over a dial up connection. Thats gotta be a double whammy. But think about that poor little macbook that sits there and doesn't get online ... soon little book ... soon ... Thanks Tjeerd!

Am totally impressed. Found everything easy to use, fabulous to look at and the concept, as I've said before, is brilliant.....being the kinda chick who likes to alphabetise i reckon that'd be a good option to have. YAY! to both of you....i think it's ACE!!!!! Hey, how good is this?!! Am totally impressed.

So imaginative. It looks like a row of DVD spines lined up. Was that intentional? Really clever and visually pleasing... Good luck with it all. It is a great idea.

I agree! You've highlighted all the reasons why we love APPLEBOX. And I also agree - the search I'm going to have to refashion. And yep - the TV collection is lacking at the moment, not from lack of stock, but I just haven't yet got the data in (as Sarah mentioned). Alphabetical list I can do - I wasn't sure how useful that might be? But I'll jot it down on my list. Home Delivery!!! It is definitely on the cards. The local pizza joint can deliver - so why can't the DVD shop as well? And then join the two and we're in business! Once the first store is in place and we're trading, we'll be looking at it. There's still the problem of dropping back the DVD - but at least the delivery part is a simple one! Cheers, and thanks for your feedback. Hi Ruth - wow - thanks for your detailed points. I agree!
