Note: I'm not sure if "Stop" should be used for the stop button.  Isn't Stop a noun for italian?

iPod Touch 3.1.3, with 1.0.3b3:
with  Italian, Spanish, French, to name a few that I remembered off the top of my head.

Should I run through all of the languages?  It was only in portrait view that had the overlap of characters.

During our call I suggested to make the font auto-resizing so that it scales down if it does not fit in the text field. But looking at that screen shot I doubt we can actually make the font for the status field smaller.

So, suggestion for an alternative solution: we move the status and spinner out of the title bar and into the content view. Like under the two buttons.

We have way more room there to show what is happening. This is not a lot of work and I don't think we will need new localizations.
