Version 3.2.6
Changes since 3.2.5:

New features
Shared selection between the Outline, To Do List, and Balance views. If the selected task is visible in the other view when you switch views, Life Balance will automatically select and scroll to that task in the other view.       Palm
Native Calendar support on the Tungsten E, T3, T5 and Treo 650. This speeds up calendar operations, makes Life Balance launch and exit more quickly on the T5 and Treo 650, and fixes some HotSync timeouts for customers with large amounts of Calendar data on these devices.       Palm
Added localized build of Life Balance in German, Spanish, French, Dutch, Norwegian and Simplified Chinese. Some of these builds are more polished than others, but we felt they should be available to customers who want them. Many thanks to the volunteers who have put in the time to provide us with translations!       Palm
Added support for Tungsten T5 and Treo 650       Palm
Modified one-handed navigation slightly so that moving left and right out of the Outline, To Do List, or accomplishments lists will exit the list rather than moving to a different line. This makes navigation easier on the Tungsten T5, which doesn't have an option key.       Palm
Added over-the-air installation using the PalmSource Installer.       Palm
Taught the conduit to understand the new format that the PalmOne Calendar application uses for events spanning midnight.   Mac Win  
Improved the error messages written to the HotSync Log when the conduit is unable to open a database on the handheld.   Mac Win  
Added the ability to set the destination directory when doing non-custom installs.     Win  
Made the dock icon bounce under Mac OS X when the application is not in the front and the user attempts to quit with unsaved changes.   Mac    
Improved the Windows installer to support all-user, single-user, and non-admin installs, subject to the limitations of the currently installed version of Palm Desktop.      Win  
Changed the communications channel between the conduit and the desktop application under Windows NT, 2000 and XP. This fixes problems where the desktop application window sometimes does not restore properly after a HotSync.     Win  
Bugs fixed
Added code to notify the user if the limit of 4000 links between Life Balance tasks and Date Book events has been exceeded.       Palm
Added code to notify the user if the Date Book or Calendar database does not exist.       Palm
The scroll up and scroll down buttons now work in the Link With Date Book form on the Treo and Tungsten T5.       Palm
When creating a new task or place on the Treo and Tungsten T5, the name will be properly preselected for editing.       Palm
Fixed problem where alarms were not being set on new Calendar events on the Treo 650 and Tungsten T5, even when the Calendar preferences said that they should.       Palm
Changed the file version numbers on Windows and the internal version number of the Windows installer to comply with the version numbering requirements of the Windows Installer. This should avoid problems where files aren't properly updated during an update, and allow future installers to provide smoother upgrades.     Win
