Re: Best software for using the n800 as a PIM?
 

While GPE Calendar and Todio and GPESummary also work on their own (with a few vrashed - as mentioned when creating categories in Todo), UI cant seem to be able to import the Calendar exports from my Zaurus, or either the contacts from my Zaurus addressbook. Both the imports fail.

Hence right now GPE Contacts is stiiing there blank since I dont want to enter all my contact details by hand again.

Note : on my Zaurus I was using KDE PIM - i.e. KaPi and KoPi

Ryan,
I would be grateful if you could quickly check if the new version can do bi-weekly events - the last time I checked it couldn't (and I de-installed it, or I would just upgrade. It had a name colllision with another app I used too so I'm hesitating a bit.)

For repeats, my Palm Calendar can do:

• None
• Daily until..
• Every week
• Every other week
• Every month
• Every year
• Other

And under 'Other' I can set almost anything.. every 13th day with or without an end date, or every third week on Thursday, etc.

Absolutely. You need Erminig http://code.google.com/p/erminig/ It works very well although I have run into issues using it behind a corporate proxy; it will hang when starting because it tries to connect before you have a chance to enable the proxy setting. I've used it for a while and it's great, nothing else seems to work like it does. It is a python application so you will need the python2.5-runtime first.

Erminig syncs both ways with Google Calendar. But, it won't be ported to OS2008 until it is officially released (i.e., out of beta).

-T.

Thanks guys, I wondered what erminig was for.

Installing it now.

You could use Garnet VM and run the palm PIM software.

Nobody tried programs from

?

They need python, no sync, everything simple but with a first class user experience, really great! After three days of usage my calendar and todo are full populated...

How do they compare to GPE?
