SAN FRANCISCO -- Ovolab on Tuesday announced that it will preview the latest version of its telephony software Phlink during this weekis Macworld Conference & Expo. Version 3.0, which will ship next month, offers such new features as call snooping, support for Elgatois EyeTV, and greater control over customization of the software. A Universal Binary that supports Intel-based Macs will also be included.

Call snooping enables Phlink to record all conversations on a phone line, whether or not the software has answered the calls. It works with all types of calls, including conference calls, and records the conversations as audio files that can be labeled, annotated, browsed and sorted, as well as indexed for Spotlight searches in Mac OS X v10.4.

With support for EyeTV, users of Elgatois digital video recording software can employ Phlink to remotely control it. They call home and enter a secret code that enables them to tell EyeTV to record a desired show at a certain time on a specific channel.

Finally, greater customization control will let users set up voice mailboxes easier, create more group calling options and more.

Phlink 3.0 will be a US$39.95 upgrade for version 2.0 users; the full software will be $149.95. The current version is available to Macworld attendees at a discounted price of $139.90, which includes a free upgrade to the new edition.
