Version 0.9 is a huge improvement over yesterday's 0.2.
The addition of the J(ump) and the arrow keys help. I still have a problem with clicking on page numbers after the first time.
The addition of the extra BBC channel also helps, is it possible to include ITV teletext?

Thanks for continuing to improve this widget, it's one of the most useful out there.
Now that we have the option of hitting 'J' and skipping straight to a page, how about adding a 'Show page no. X at startup' preference so that our favourite page is displayed upon launch?
The one issue that I'm still experiencing is that sometimes when clicking on page numbers nothing happens.
