    thanks and the nntp provider from google play is free. I only have program that I pay for and it was a upgread on Astraware Solitaire - when I got it, it was free years ago (sorry for the caps - was a cup and paste job)

    - Hardware keyboard articles navigation.

    I can't help stumbling on a one little thing. It was in previous versions and it stil is in this one.
    When I select a FTN/NNTP server from initial menu or when I choose another area
    to reply - there is a highlighted selection, which I can move with up/down arrows on a keyboard and then press enter. And that's great! :) But when I scroll the list of areas (or newsgroups) - there isn't one. Although, it actually *is* there, but it's invisible, for when I press the enter button - it
    opens an area wich is currently under the invisible highlight-selection. For example: when I scroll down the list - it will be the last area on the screen, if I press up several times - it will be an area on a corresponding position from the bottom, etc.
    So.. is it possible to make this selection visible everywhere? Would be very nice, since my new BT-mouse tends to turn-off after just a few minutes of inactivity and I have to press a button on it and then wait for about 5-10 seconds for it to connect.

    Yes, I'll put this into todo list, I know the actual reason of this bug (my experiments with themes some time ago).

    Can you tell me something about the new article navigation with hardware keyboard? I don't have one to test now. Does it work as expected?

    Unfortunately, I couldn't utilize the arrow keys because they are in use by other ui elements.

    BTW, I've discovered just now - same thing goes with the block editing mode. I can scroll the blocks up and down with the corresponding arrow keys and when I press enter - it opens the "selected" block for text-editing, but.. once again,
    like in the area-selection mode - the highlighting is invisible. If you make a highlighting visible there and also make some key like backspace or delete to remove the selected block.. man, it would be awesome! :) In this case - there will be virtually no need for a mouse at all.
