thanks for sharing (and sorry I didn't get around to answer your 
email regarding this yet).

There should only be a short slowdown when you switch applications 
since this will make Remote Buddy internally update its display to 
represent the current state, so it'll appear instantly when you next 
call up the menu. Since none of the other apps for the remote do have 
a real, fully integrated menu system like Remote Buddy - with online 
help, sliders, ratings and everything, they of course can't even be 
tempted to redraw anything of that for later viewing ;-)

Rest assured, though, I'm aware of the problem and am working on a fix.

Best regards, 
Felix
