GSM Library Released
Our GSM Library is designed to make interacting with a GSM module reliable and easy. The base library includes functions for detecting missed calls, reading/writing the GSM modules internal RTCC (real-time calendar and clock), extracting the date/time from the GSM network, reading the modules IMEI code, and entering the SIM card pin code.
Extensions are available for adding text messaging (SMS) and/or GPRS functionality to the library.

Fancy Store Category Icons
We have added an option to display some fancy icons for the categories in the online store. In order to turn them on, simply hover your mouse over the indicated area whilst on the store home page, and click "Turn On Fancy Icons".
 
These may help you to navigate around the store and find what you're looking for more easily. On the other hand, if you prefer a plainer look, then you can simply turn them off again in the same way.
