Apple has just approved PDX Bus version 3.6.
This version contains some fixes for the trip planner (see previous post below) and a new feature - "Search for nearby rail stations" - this is for people who (say) are downtown and just want to find the nearest MAX station. To use this feature you will need to update the stop location database.
(The trip planner fixes include automatically changing the maximum walking distance down from 5 miles if it has been corrupted, and also some fixes with some addresses causing PDX Bus to crash).
PDX Bus is a free application that displays arrival times for public transport in Portland, Oregon. This little application uses the Internet to quickly access TriMet's tracking data displaying arrival times perfectly formatted for the iPhone. This was developed as a volunteer effort to provide a service for TriMet riders. The developer has no affiliation with TriMet.

City-Go-Round
Here's a quick plug for a new web site that features all sorts of transit apps for all kinds of devices and platforms. PDX Bus has a listing there too, so it must be good, right? :-)
