On Schedule

I ran across a PIM called On-Schedule by Odyseesyinc.com.... it shows some promise though I could not get it to sync. Anyone ever try it out?

for business use it has a market, I have about 20 customers that I can think of that will pay for real Outlook Integration and HTML e-mail support. They want their pocketpc to work like outlook on the desktop.

Their online information says you just need a Guest Partnership to sync with Outlook. I wonder how they manage that?

well for all the promise I saw the software does not work and they have not responded to any support requests. I look at the site and updates are almost a year old... think this one is a loser.

FWIW this program is very old. I tried it years ago on my HP handheld and just didn't like it at all.

Wow! that's gotta sting.
That's a lotta dough for some crusty old app.
I kinda think that regular and frequent updates are a pain in the @rse (as they tend to contain more bugs then they fix), but on the other hand they are a good barometer for developer interest and support.

The software does not work and they do not return phone calls or answer e-mails... so for me it is a dead issue... I just saw some promise in their design.
