Default WebIS Announces Permanent Price Decreases

http://ssl.webis.net/

Last month, WebIS had a special promotion that ran through the end of the year. Now, based on the success of that, they have moved all of their pricing down permanently. Pocket Informant is now at $24.95. Mail is at $19.95. Toolbox is at $12.95.

Additionally, if you already own a PIM product from a competitor, WebIS offers a 50% discount on Pocket Informant. :way to go:

Very nice pricing. I wonder if they will cut the price on Flex Wallet as well.

a ppc without pocketinformant is, for me, almost not usable.
i have tried to convince all my ppc using friends to get it, but they are all buy-online-with-credit-card-paranoid (strange).
But i have bought it for my girlfriend's iMate, because she was so unhappy with the integrated week view and contacts management.

ever since it came bundled with my loox 600 i have been a great fan, and my next ppc(pe) will definately be equipped with PI.

and if PI ever comes to symbian, i'll be the first to buy!

I have tried the built in calendar program, but found it way too limited to be usefull. Up until the end of Dec I had been using a competing program and bought PI simply because the 12.99 deal was too hard to pass up. I have been extremely impressed with PI ever since and have not looked back.

My only gripe is that the default contacts layout is pretty ugly. I have seen the screenshot that they have in the ppcthoughts banner, with the pretty icons and two lines per contact, but haven't figured out how to make mine look like that.

Otherwise the calendar app is slick and highly functional. Let's hope that their price drop earns them some well deserved sales. Good job guys

Picture list. Tap on the icon with two squares (one above the other) and select Picture List. I just figured that out!

Nice. PI is a must-have IMO.

Great tip ctmagnus. My only gripe is that PIContacts doesn't have an easier search function a la ContactBreeze.

Got anything for that ctmagnus? :wink:

Unfortunately, no. That's my one gripe with PI contacts as well.

PI has a search bar, and it has the letter tabs, but neither work as well as the letter tabs in ContactBreeze or Spb Diary.

So this sounds like a great time to ask - what can we do in PI to make it easier? Maybe it not obvious but in PI you can start typing (if you have a keyboard) in PI and it'll automatically start searching. That's my preferred way of doing it.
