Some Hints
GolfCard customers have provided thousands of suggestions in the last 14 months. We have gone from version 1.0 to 1.15 (so thats 16 significant releases, with many more minor releases. We have some great things in store... a refreshing look and feel, allowing the iPod Touch to have a useful range finder, and some big surprises. More to come later, but our goal is for a release in early Spring. Keep checking this page for more details over the next weeks.
...and yes, all current users automatically get the 2.0 update. Some other companies will create a whole new app to bring in new revenue, but that’s not our business model.
