Can you give me some ideas on how you use Outlook for organizing your information? What I like about Outlook is it has the E-mail in the same program but it is overly complicated for my needs and seems a bit slow? I'm running a PentiumI, 200 mhz system which isn't very fast so that may be the problem.

So far, I've been very impressed with the spec on the Compaq Aero which runs Windows CE and has its own version of office built in. At this moment I'm weighing the pros and cons of each to decide which would be the best route. Since I already have my information in Microsoft Outlook, this may be the best route for me. In fact, I've been toying with the idea of equipping each member of the technical and service staff with one. This way, notes, quotes and contact information would be easily accessible to everybody. Price lists wouldn't be getting mislaid all the time. Calendars would be immediately accessible and pieces of paper wouldn't be so easily lost. Feel free to check it out at: http://www.compaq.com/products/handhelds/1500/index.html My wife, who teaches school, is even excited about the potential. Keeping her lesson plans, gradebook, parent contact information, to-do list and everything else in her pocket would give her quite an advantage. Just a few musings, Allan Allan L.

Outlook is a pretty complicated piece of software compared to the Palm Software. Thanks in advance. David Ilvedson
