SOFTWARE VERSION:
Maemo 5 20.2010.36-2 SeriesFinale 0.6.5

EXPECTED OUTCOME:

It might be nice to tell the App to update once a day, once a week or
something. So that next time the phone has a wireless connection it updates.

Again Love the App

Right now, updating is done in foreground so we don't mess up with updating and
changing things at the same time. So when updating basically you can do
nothing.

An alternative version to this is just to check in background which series need
an update (this could be done daily or weekly) and then show to the user that a
serie needs to be updated.

But there's another topic here: updating requires bandwidth, and bandwidth can
be expensive in some places. So we user must confirm that she wants this
background check and, if possible, determine when she wants to check
(daily/weekly, or when connection is only wifi or not)
