This little app shows animated NexRad radar images. This update fixes a number of nagging issues and adds some polish - it has gone from functional to fantastic!
Changelog:

Changelog:
- Stop animating after 1 minute of inactivity, tap to resume
- Use a still image for the minimized pages
- Improve webkit cache management
- Make scroll positions persistent
- Update to icon provided by phillipah (may need to reboot/delete & reinstall to see it)
TODO:
- Find a way to support shrink/zoom pinch gestures.
- Waiting for Palm to support animated .gifs with the ImageView widget
- Alternatively load the individual images and cycle them myself
- Use location services to pick/center the radar intelligently
- Find a sleep event to hook instead of the timeout kludges being used now
- Add WunderMap Interactive Radar & Weather Stations : Weather Underground support
- Possibly add lightning strike data - don't know of any free data source
- Add support for individual radar sites instead of the mashups
There have been many other great suggestions that I haven't listed here.
