WattDroid Beta

The first beta of WattDroid is ready to explore. It's bare bones right now, but soon there will be a lot more functionality. Currently the WattDroid application displays information about specific sources when you select the source from a list. For those of you who are wondering, "What's a Source?" well it's just a node or sensor that contains data about anything you desire. WattDroid simply finds the list of sources and displays the XML of that source as of now. We have a lot in store for this application.

Here are some screenshots to give you a good idea:
