A complete list of changes from 3.0 -> 3.1

As announced earlier, 3.1 is now available.  We would, of course, 
appreciate whatever feedback you would care to offer (publicly or 
privately).  Things have been surprisingly quiet and all I know so 
far is what we already knew (the *big* problems are all fixed, many 
Treo/T5 "thank-you" notes are coming in).  I have had 1 report of an 
off-the-beaten-path crash and 1 user whose registration is no longer 
working.  We are working on both.

Here are the changes new in release 3.1 on September 9, 2005 (from 
3.0):
