This looks very cool... but beware, on Handango it is listed as Beta, so if you use your PIM functions for something critical you might want to think twice before using this product, at least initially.

Doubt this will replace PI or AF... but hey, some new PPC users should really get a kick out of it.

The biggest point to this is another alternative for a PIM. The developer has said he will further develop if users are interested.

Hey, I like PI and AF but another option is always welcome. :wink:

This looks like a decent start.

Default nice looking app.

This looks great. You know what they say about small acorns ! Let's hope it's developed further.

Default Requires .NET framework?

Does this require that I install the .NET framework on my PDA. I had assumed that to run .NET applications I would need to install something specific (and large) from Microsoft.

Yes, you can still use the existing apps as this will read and write to the actual contacts/appointments/tasks databases.

Yes, you need the .NET framework. It is included in the download.
