Calendar done!

HA. Got all the data I had in MeetingMaker (well, all personal stuff: calling gigs, sister-in-law crashing at our place, dentist appointments, crap like that) entered into my ancient creaking Palm Pilot. By hand (ouch). Across a change of batteries, no less. Criminy! But it's in there.

I can sense a Treo in my future... like an oncoming train. It's just a question of when I'll grudgingly part with the money.

I *do* write code for... well, just about everything :-) and gave up on palm because it's just such a nasty dev environment. I used a wince box (ipaq 4155) for a while - because I could write python hacks on it - but found the UI wretched - borrow one and try it, if you consider that path, it's a lot more different than I expected. (These days the Nokia 6630 is an acceptable blend - I can code in python (talking to the GPS and the builtin-camera), the PIM apps are not terribly clever but also not terribly complex or broken either. I still carry a "real" camera, though.)

Several of my friends (and coworkers) love the treo, though (especially the sysadmins :-)
