Regarding the rates, I can't see if this was discussed further. However I second the suggestion of using a different source for this information. I had a quick glance over the rates on the Bitpay page and they seem closer to the true market rates. Certainly for my local currency, NZD, the rate is much more accurate
We've switched the provider to BitcoinAverage about a month ago. It takes a weighted average from all exchanges dealing with given currency, depending on the volume of transactions on each one, so it seems to be the most accurate source. BitPay calculates everything from BTC/USD rate somehow, which in some cases comes out completely wrong.

One interface issue that I haven't seen in any other app is that I am unable to drag the window if I grab it over the title text. Any other area on the title bar works fine. Had me stumped the first time I noticed it  Smiley
Yeah, I think I've noticed this too, must be something caused by the library we're using to make the window title bar wider than usually. I'll add a ticket for this.

Thanks for the info. One thing I can't find is a way to create new receiving addresses. Is this implemented? It seems that it could be because the receiving address is labeled "main" which implies it might be possible to add others with different names but I can't find a button or menu entry for this function anywhere.
