To answer Alex Hall's question to a degree; one feature available in Fantastical that I've not found in the native calendar app is the ability to create an entry based on a positional day of the week. What I mean by this is the ability to set an entry that repeatedly occurs on the first Monday of each month, the third Thursday of each month or the last Sunday of each month.
I use these examples because they are, in fact, repeated events that I have created via Fantastical. The beauty of this is that after creating the entries via Fantastical, the native calendar app will recognize such entries correctly. ---- Holland's Boy, Bill - "Be careful about reading health books.

I find Calendar easy enough to use, and have never really had problems with it. It's not the best, but it's fine. I guess I'm wondering what features people like about Fantastical that make it worth it? Also, will Fantastical hook into iOS' calendars? That is, if I make an appointment with it, will that then sync to iOS, and from there propagate through iCloud to sync with my Mac's default calendar app? -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
