    Changes since 3.2.3:

    New features
    Added support for the Treo 600 5-way navigator. See documentation for details.       Palm
    Added support for additional collaboration features with the Palm OS Exchange Manager which allows you to send a section of your Life Balance outline via email and SMS, as well as beaming. See documentation for details. NOTE: we believe there is a bug in the built in mail program on the Treo 600 that prevents you from successfully receiving Life Balance data as an email attachment. (We've tested and confirmed that SnapperMail works correctly.)       Palm
    Added international language support to the conduits to automatically detect the Palm text encoding and convert if necessary. Added menus to the desktop HotSync dialog and conduit settings to allow overriding the auto detection. Depending on the exact details of your particular operating system, the new encodings supported potentially include: Western European (Windows), Western European (Palm), Japanese (Palm Shift-JIS), Japanese (Shift-JIS), Japanese (EUC), Cyrillic (Windows), Cyrillic (ISO), Russian (KOI8-R), OEM Cyrillic, Cyrillic (DOS), Cyrillic (Mac), Ukrainian (KOI8-U), Ukrainian (Mac), Hebrew (ISO-Logical), Hebrew (ISO-Visual), Hebrew (Windows), Chinese Simplified (GB2312), Chinese Simplified (HZ), Chinese Simplified (GB2312-80), Chinese Traditional (Palm Big5), Chinese Traditional (Big5), Chinese Traditional (Big5Plus), Greek (Windows), Turkish (ISO), Korean (EUC).
