Additionally, it also includes improved security and new ways to share, send, and receive appointments and address book information.
In addition to a brand new look, this updated software offers expense tracking, in-place memo editing, new ways to customize your launcher bar, a variety of desktop alarms, and more. Version 6.2 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

"No major problems w/download."
Version: Palm Desktop 6.2
Pros
Not able to comment since I don't use added features.
Cons
None noted thus far.
Summary
No particular problems downloading to Windows XP desk-top/Palm T/X. Did not lose any data. Have not tried to figure-out how to back-up my data for handheld - in case everything were to get lost during 1st Hot-Sync (which occured automatically during set-up). Kind of scary - although I also sync w/a laptop - so data is backed-up there.
