Ok, you want another rant. You get one ;) Only KMail and Kalendar as I don't have tested anything more until now. I updated to PR1.3 meanwhile. Tonight I saw the update and installed it. First impression was: wow. The startup was way faster than any time before, most things are properly lokalized to German, the month lines in the mail view make things better visible. The mail view doesn't want to update for me, it always shows the mails it last downloaded in October (when I last opened it with the old version). When I ask to synchronize all accounts nothing changes. I tried to look for a new IMAP folder I created meanwhile. But I can't find it because every time I go to the second folder level below an IMAP inbox Kmail crashes. Trying to show a folder with messages and subfolders (first level) -> crash. Then I opened my spam folder and randomly tried to view some mails. Mails show up. But the content is not the one of the mail I just selected, but some random one. It only changes like every 10th time. Maybe this just takes ages to reload and I don't wait long enough? If I open a new IMAP folder I get this spinning wheel so I guess that would work with the message view, too. Ok, Kalendar. Once again told hin in which IMAP folder the groupware stuff is. Still nothing shows up. Tried to edit again: the IMAP account is again reset to my default one. Every time. Ok, try to just create a new event. This widget to enter the time looks stunning beautiful. But it's painfully unusable. The clock is the biggest item on the whole screen, but it's impossible to do any interaction with it. It took me a while to find out I must highlight the numbers on the right side and then flick them up and down to get any change. Which usually goes way too far. Cursor buttons? Nothing happens. I currently get the clock widget showing 10:00 while the numbers show 6:0. Should be "00". Any time you click on the clock widget it spins back to 10:00 while the numbers stay where you put them. Even worse: it seems like what the clock shows is the "real" time, i.e. it thinks it is back to 10:00 which is the original time so I can't click ok. The date widget showed up with 1-1-2000, why not the current date? Then it took two times to update the date in the event. I updated the date in the date window and just flicked it out. The event did not update (ok, should have pressed ok probably). But when I clicked on the date again it showed the values I selected there. Tried some more times, also with the time: no, the selected time is only applied into the event randomly. Maybe it get's the clock widget and the numbers confused half of the time and applies the wrong time. Small note: when flicking the numbers up and down they appear somewhere outside the widget and are scrolled through. Maybe the should show up only inside the window? Also for my feeling they are much to far away from each other. I would really love to see this working. This has so much possibilities, I love it. Really. If I'm doing everything wrong just tell me and I will do it different. But currently I'm feeling like a kid being sent to T**s'R'*s to choose something for Xmas, Santa Clause, Birthsday and Eastern and then sent home with nothing. This is such an impressive piece of software. And for me it is completely useless as not the smallest bit is usable in any way. Not because it's unusable, but because it simply doesn't work at all. And it's not that things would not work, it looks for me that it's only the smallest bit at the end that it's missing. Too bad. Really, this is nearly there. It is closer to the best PIM suite on a smartphone than everything I've seen before. And I just can't wait to see it getting there. But it simply doesn't work for me. Eike
