hi,
i dont have a pocket pc.
but i do want to buy one sooner.
and the only reason to buy them is to use it to manage my time.
and agenda fusion sounds pretty good.

therefore iwant to try the trial version of agenda fusion on my pc.

is it possible?

No, not as far as I know. You can certainly download the Embedded Visual Tools (http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/downloads/emvt30.asp) and run the Pocket PC Emulator on your desktop, but the programs have to be recompiled for x86 for this to work.

I'd suggest, instead, to either find a friend who has a Pocket PC or to describe in detail what exactly you want to do on this webboard; I'm sure people could fill in with whether or not AF (or its oft-mentioned counterpart, Pocket Informant (www.pocketinformant.com)) could accomplish the job.

Or get Outlook or another PIM and just do it on the desktop. Use outlook and you'll have it all ready to transfer over to AF. If you /only/ want a PPC for time managing, I'd say skip it. Get a $80 palm instead. The low end Dell is a great deal, but may be overkill for what you're wanting.
