Fuelpad is the one I've seen. I've downloaded and installed it, but haven't actually used it yet, because I'm still carrying my Lifedrive because of the lack of a decent password manager with import capability, and the lack of PIMs. I plan to try it soon, though.
Installed KeePass software & tested. Seems to require external keyboard! Can't get n800 onscreen keyboard to appear for data entry. Any ideas on handling this?
I've only just found this thread ( using search as a quick way to find my own ).
FGol - There is a new version (0.3) of DaTable. By the way you do not need sqlite3 installed to run DaTable only python 2.5 ( sqlite3 is compiled into python ).
I too have been making the transition from Palm to an N800...
Notes / Memos - Have you looked at Notecase?
I used the Cut&Paste method to migrate my Palm/Outlook notes. Actually made me clean up and organize them a little and purge the junk that had accumulated.
FuelPad - Nicely replaces my old SmartList2Go fuel tracker (Sadly I have not as yet found a way to import the old data into the new format...project for later)
None of the Contacts apps on OS2008 clicked with me so I ended up using the html import feature of Gene Cash's Info On Tap DB.
GPE Calendar <- Erminig -> GCal using GCal's Notification via SMS on my cell for alarms. Seems to be working OK.
Doesn't anyone use financial software around here? I would love a replacement for Pocket Quicken, which Landware states in no uncertain terms will never be produced for Linux - any platform.

There is a Grisbi port to the 770, but I don't see a version for os2007 or 2008. I don't know how well it worked on the 770 (it is listed as "Alpha quality" on the maemo downloads listing), but you might search the forums to see what you find. I'm not sure how much development work has gone into Grisbi in recent years (although there seems to be some activity of late), and there ware still some rough edges on the English translation when I looked at it several years ago (it was written in French originally).
I've seen both grisbi and gnucash running on the Zaurus. Kmymoney is a KDE app that also might be portable, and those that are running KDE on their tablets can probably tell you whether or not it runs well or not.
All will take some getting used to, as they have different features, interface approaches, and conventions from the various versions of Quicken. Many people give up too quickly because of these differences, so just be aware that they will likely require some time to adjust.
I don't think it would work, but there is also a java-based program called Moneydance that runs on Linux systems, and is very nice. It is not free, and I suspect is a bit resource hungry for running on the n8x0. I've used it, and it was fairly familiar to this former Quicken user.
I forgot that there are programs to track spending, e.g., Gene Cash's "Spend It," that he wrote for the n8X0. It doesn't have many of the features of pocket quicken, but it may be all you need.
I'm in the running for a N900 as a replacement for my Palm Treo 650. I'm very interested in your scripts so i can take my data with me to my N900. I'm specially interested in the solution for Strip. Thats what i use right now too.
