I am probably the most type A when it comes to appointments. I still use my old bible PDA. I have all appointments in my iTouch, iPad, phone and, YIKES, the paper book. I will NEVER give up that paper book. I know that will never crash! Electronics are great, but there is nothing like the old standby. Buenos noches, Lynnette
