Hi Bruce ... You make some good points. I like the schedule on the computer because I can't lose it or misplace it. I'm very disorganized when it comes to small things. Plus, I've then got to find a safe and easy way to carry the little bugger around. How do you do that?
It might be nice to have needed info at my fingertips, although, there's really not much info I have to have at my fingertips - I check my appointments on the PC in the morning, and then go about the day. What kind of Palm do you have? Is it like a PIM - Just learned what that is ;-)) How do you sync the Palm and the PC?
