I couldn't get my wallet out fast enough to upgrade to this version. Note (no pun intended) how disappointed I was to learn that it no longer syncs directly with OUTLOOK!! You have to manually import Outlook notes to Desktop Phatnotes to get them onto the PPC!

After paying for the "upgrade" I found their web site says that you should convert from Outlook Notes to Desktop Phatnotes. Why would I want my notes to no longer be integrated with Outlook? Am I missing something here?

I don't get why upgrades always seem to strip out those features that I really like. :twak:

Thanks for that last comment. I keep wondering what I am missing but each trial of Phatnotes I have tried seemed cumbersome to me. I would like a program that will quickly give me a note page and that will sync with Outlook without a lot of tedious entries. I have tried many: some I like but none will sync with outlook. I must not be enough of a note taker, that's why I keep a couple of 3x5 cards in my hip pocket.
