I am able to synch those same items with ACT! I have no experience with =
Time
& Chaos. Once I was introduced to ACT! I just felt that my needs were
(finally) being met and I looked no further. I wonder if anyone out =
there
has experience in both, and if they have a preference of one over the =
other.

Gosh, ya know in retrospect that was probably a dumb thing for me to =
say. It
came from my memory of learning how to use my iPAQ when I would =
frequently
run into situations where I believed the task being so much more =
sensible on
the Palm. Such is frequently the case when learning totally new
hardware/software. But since I started using ACT! and having finally =
learned
most of the in-n-outs of the iPAQ, those situations have become so
infrequent that I honestly can't remember what they were. If I were to =
load
some batteries back into my Palm and play with it a while perhaps I =
could
remember what they were, but honestly I am really happy with my iPAQ and =
see
no reason to go back. Call it a learning curve, I guess.=20

Geoff,

What "intelligent features" do you miss?

I, too, used to use a Palm device. I loved it, but I gave it up so that =
I
could use pRCT. The Windows based pocket PC's are really wonderful in a =
lot
of ways. You can keep and access pretty much any Windows based document =
and
the synchronization with your PC and Outlook is very good. On the other
hand, there are a several intelligent features in the Palm that I
occasionally miss. Not enough to go back though.=20

Off subject, but to further the conversation about client tracking and
records keeping software, I have my PC and my iPAQ synchronized through
ACT!, which I use for all my client scheduling and tracking. I keep my
mileage records, my accounts receivable and payable in a simple Excel
spreadsheet which, due to the Windows OS of the pocket PC and the =
excellent
synchronization features, is available on both my PC and my iPaq. =
Scheduling
is done through ACT! and email is through Outlook. Synchronizations =
updates
both the Outlook calendar and the iPAQ and syncs all the spreadsheets as
well.=20
