For what you wish to do, the Palm is generally great. I sync my Erage
contacts and calendar, with only minimal trouble. You can't sync the email,
however. One word of advice: before you do your first sync, set up all of
your Erage contact (not calendar) categories on the Palm. (The Palm will not
import E'rage's categories.) Then, for your first sync, do "Entourage
overwrites handheld." Further sync's can be done in the usual manner.
I have found this to be reliable and very useful - probably better than a
Filofax. But somehow the old leather book felt better in the hand.
