As I noted, I have the desktop version of Comet and it fills a couple of
my needs -- but not the one I crave most. I want to be in a call
(preferable) or post call (acceptable) and log the call and any notes
about it in my calendar/Datebk6, either as an appointment at the current
time (preferable) or in a Daily Journal (acceptable).
I am amazed no one has asked for this before now. I have to admit
Comet comes closest to my heart for the functions you list. But there's
that one facility I sure would like to have.
