An update to Shopulator has been posted to the Android Market.

Shopulator 1.1 Changelog:

• Added currency option; choose between dollars, pounds, euros and yen.
• Removed default “0.00″ price on the item entry screen for faster keying
• Improved list scrolling performance
• Added FAQs section to the options menu

Thank you for all of the feedback sent in so far! Please continue sending in suggestions and comments. Two popular requests right now seem to be barcode scanning and a screen keyboard. Taken from the FAQ:

Can you add barcode scanning for item prices?
Unfortunately, since barcodes only contain UPC codes, there is no way for Shopulator to pull item pricing data from them (especially from local grocery markets). While some price scanning applications exist (like ShopSavvy), they typically work for items where pricing can be found online, usually for electronics. Unfortunately, that kind of information isn’t really possible with things such as canned peas and bananas.

Can you add an on-screen soft keyboard?
Since an official keyboard will be included in the next major Android update (Cupcake), Shopulator will simply take advantage of that standard soft-keyboard when it is released, which hopefully will be soon!

Introducing Shopulator, Beanbit’s premier application freshly released to the Android Market! So what is Shopulator? It’s as simple as it sounds; a shopping list with a calculator twist. Most shopping list applications don’t offer much benefit over traditional pen and paper. Shopulator goes the next step by actually helping you keep track of the total cost of your list, even before you start shopping.

If you have a budget, you may find it can be difficult to keep track of how much is in your cart while you shop. By the time you get to the checkout register, it becomes a guessing game to see how close you got to your goal. That’s where Shopulator comes in. Simply enter in the current selling price of each item on your list, the quantity you’d like to buy, and Shopulator keeps track of the totals for you. No more guesswork necessary! Prepare your list ahead of time by reviewing your local circulars, or just plug in the cost while shopping at the store. Shopulator is fast, simple and efficient to keep you moving without much slowdown.

Here’s the current feature list:

• Clean and simple user interface
• Allows you to create and keep multiple shopping lists
• Easy item cost calculator (How much is 3 for $5 if I just want 2?)
• Running total of items
• Tax calculation
• Lots of options
• …plus more features in the pipe

And of course, here are the screenshots!
