My Blackberry App seems to have updated itself to version 2.5, which looks quite different.

The EC main page now has loads of useless information, like:
- Number of qualifiying flights flown (why?)
- All flights flown (why?)
- Household BA miles (why?)
- Membership year end (but not GLL year end date )
- Card expiry
- My email address (err, I think I know that)

(Not sure why any of the above is needed.)

Then a giant box which states:

REMAIN GOLD - You will need 1500 TPs and 4 BA Flights.

(Utterly useless information, as I have already got 960 TPs and flown 13 BA flights, since my renewal 2 months ago).

The list of bookings is still all good, and now we see additionally:
- Class
- Operated by
- Ticket Number
- Ability to email itinerary

Again, all very interesting. But completely misses the most information:
- Seat Number

And misses the information I might need on the move:
- Boarding closes at
- Checkin closes at
- Mobile BP available or not available for this route
- Lounge information for my departure
