I'm not sure if I can do this in the applet popup menu.

Well, grepping for 'N/A' in GNOME CVS gives some hits. Personally I think '-' is a okay translation but I guess I could go with 'Unknown' or something instead. I'll wait for more comments on this. > I will probably have more feedback for you as I take a closer look at OnTV > but it looks like an Applet I might actually want to use (that's a > compliment).
