This version is a nightmare on my N1 running the latest CM7.
Wanted to change my privacy settings in Waze, but it crashed when I tried going to the right place in the menu. Deleted all data but that didn't change anything.

Well, not too annoying since here in Europe we can't use that awesome gas prices feature anyway.
When is the international server expected to be updated for this?

//edit: Tried it again to be more precise about the problem. As soon as I click on (Show me as) "Anonymous" to change it, Waze gets force closed. (Logs sent.)

I'll just leave this setting alone and give this version a chance. Maybe everything else works fine.

Another thing: This time I lost my favorites when I went from .105 back up to this version.

Very good finding! I have noticed this morning that the bug was not there, but very likely because there were no jams. In the afternoon, it was again like an orange tsunami coming from the ocean and sweeping half of the screen.

One thing I ran in to is if you are being prompted for the are you in traffic? The nearby traffic reports routine needs to be surpressed so you can click on the appropiate button.

A rendering issue is hardly a coincidence if it didn't happen before. Thankfully Waze aren't as dismissive of beta problems ;-)

This version is working pretty well on my P500 (with CM7.1)
Just noticed some minor issues:
1) Sometimes the graphic on the top that indicates the next turn disappears until Waze is restarted.
2) There is problem with the alerts (police, incidents, etc.) notifications: the navigation looks to hang at the next node found after the alert is showed, to restore the navigation you have to manually close the notification dialog.

About Italian TTS the Italian language looks to be working now, but:
1) There are still some sentences that are English sentences read in Italian, e.g. the alerts notifications
2) Both Italian Male and Italian Female voice are very metallic, as they where encoded with too much compression. Especially the Female voice is hard to listen.
3) Routing indications looks like they are read as portion of the sentence and then the resulting audio files are joined together, the result is a strange emphasis on the phrases and unnatural pauses during the speech.
4) Roman numbers are read as cardinal number and not as ordinal numbers as they should be (at leat in Italian). E.g. "Gregorio XI" is incorrectly pronounced "Gregorio 11" and not "Gregorio undicesimo" (Gregory the 11th) as it should be.
5) When approaching a turn, the TTS read "In 800m, preparati a girare a destra" (In 800m, get ready to turn right). The problem is that "preparati" is read with the wrong accent becoming the past participle instead of the imperative it should be. The easiest fix is probably to change the sentence avoiding that word and using for example "prepararsi" in place of "preparati"

You're missing nothing. You have to search to get the list of gas prices, switch the category to the right one, then you get a list. It doesn't show them on the map, updating them is tedious (if it works, but that'll get fixed eventually), etc..

Careful what you ask for I suppose. I kept asking for Gas Buddy integration, but didn't really picture anything like this. I wonder what data they're using..

I finally turned on the TTS (usually don't use it since I mostly know where I'm going) and discovered that interstates are getting an extra word in. For example "I-465" is pronounced "eye to four sixty five". This isn't a real problem around my area, but I could imagine that if you're in an area where there's an I-65 and an I-265, getting instructions to "Exit left to eye to sixty five" could be confusing, especially if there's a ramp to both 65 and 265 close to each other. I'd suggest stripping dashes from the text before sending it off to the translator...

Also, with the TTS on, I discovered that the nice little lady voice tells you that there's a car on the shoulder (for example), but it's not displayed on the "hazard ahead" dialog box that pops up. It would be nice, for those who don't normally use TTS, to be able to read that.

When the phone is it vertical orientation there is gas prices but no paving. When its in land scape there is paving but no Gas Prices?

And oddly enough I dont have the vertical lines bug that others reports having.

This weekend I had a lot of routing issues, each time I left the rout, waze could not recalculate a new one (no communication to server). I had to switch off waze and start again, than the rout was calculated. This can also have been related to the server problem these days.
In the Spanish TTS instead of "turn" it says "take". "Tome a la derecha" instead of "Gire a la derecha".
