The recent release of the latest update to Qmobilesoft's CallRec program, version 5.0, contained a number of crippling bugs for users of the various Palm OS Treos. Many users reported spontaneous crashes and endless reset loops that could only be cured by completely deleting version 5.0 or reverting back to an older version. Since the program defaults to auto-record incoming and outgoing calls on the Treo, this could lead to disastrous results for nearly all users of the program.

Fortunately, Qmobilesoft has responded swiftly to their customers' concerns with the quiet release of version 5.1 of the program. Initial testing on a Verizon 700p shows a significant improvement in stability and recording performance with none of the spontaneous reboots or crashes that plagued the earlier version.
