Now that Locale is way to expensive. Is there any app out there that is close to the same? One that sets profiles on locations....
It's probably a bit naughty of me (I'm the developer) but:

Not as refined as Locale for location-based, but does vastly more.

Yes, still in beta I'm afraid, I just couldn't resist the thread title

I was using the Beta version of Locale, but after the last update it stopped working (intentionally?)
@pent: Wow! Looks like you have put some SERIOUS work into Tasker!
I don't think it's intentional, as v0.695beta is still functioning fine on my handset.

Im curious and confused, you are looking for an alternative to locale because the price is now $10 for new downloads. Does the beta version stop working now that the new version is out? And if not, why do you need something else?
Yep, I opened up the old beta today and got a message about it being expired and it disabled Locale and then closed out. Bummer. No way I'm paying $10 though. Mostly because of the notification icon at the top all the time. I might have paid $5 but that's it. I used it to turn off my ringer during the week when I'm at work and to enable WiFi and brighten the screen when I have my phone plugged in.
I'm checking out Timeriffic and Tasker now.
Seeing as you're here Pent..... any ETA on Tasker 0.8b?
