<h2>Carbide.c++ News  view</h2>
<p>The <b>Carbide.c++ News</b> view appears whenever you launch Carbide to provide the latest Carbide, Symbian, and S60 news as well as updates and screencasts for Carbide development. This view can be reduced but still visible in the <a href="../concepts/CarbidePerspective.html">Carbide C/C++ perspective</a> for easy access.</p>
