Finally been able to test this, 0.5.6 from the apps4meego testing stage.
It's excellent, & def. better than the default weather app. A few things I've noticed though:

1)
In the feed screen there's no visual indicator that lets you know you've launched meecast.

2)
The actual launch of the app does takes quite a while, not sure if this can be improved slightly.

3)
When choosing the BOM weather feed, there's only two Australian cities one can choose from!
Penrith is not even a major or capital city...
The capital cities are: Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin, Hobart, Canberra.
There's other major regional cities that I can list if you want, but this should be in the BOM data.

Also, when are you guys going to charge for this? It's def. worth a buck or two.
To bad for the people that are too cheap to pay that much.

Cheers!

Is this still a possibility longer-term?
