Motion Apps releases mVoice 5.5 Update
Motion Apps' popular mVoice app has received an update to version 5.5. mVoice is a phone call and voice memo recorder application for Palm OS and Windows Mobile Treos. The Windows Mobile version of mVoice is still at version 5.0, however, this 5.5 update features an overhauled user interface in addition to the new feature of automatic phone conversation recording. Other additions found in this update are a new noise filter while recording and a built-in phone call log. In addition, all 5.x versions of mVoice feature an update checker built into the app. This permits Treo owners to download the latest version over the air and install it to their devices without having to Hotsync with a PC.
mVoice is available for $24.95. Owners of the previous version 4.x of mVoice can upgrade to the latest version for $9.99. Owners of the previous versions 5.00 and 5.01 can download the 5.5 update for free from Motion Apps. PIC reviewed mVoice 5.0 head to head with CallRec 3.1 last year here.

Seidio has released a new extended battery for the Treo 680/750. The 1300mAh battery offers a modest 8% increase over the Treo's stock 1200mAh model. Unlike the recently released 2400mAh option, this battery does not require a new battery door as it is the same size at the stock battery and is shipping now. It sells for $34.95 USD.
The Treo 680 was released two months ago, with the biggest user complaint being the shorter battery life. Palm recently issued a patch to correct a power drain issue related to the Treo's camera, which by some PIC reader accounts has helped improve battery performance.
