Hi Susanna, I really like Gemini calendar on my Droid. It displays Google calendars which I sync with other desktop apps. As far as typing goes, I use the Shapewriter swiping keyboard which is phenomenal. It is incredibly fast and shockingly accurate. It's not perfect, cut works well for me.

After all these years of holding on to a paper calendar, my new smart phone is making me think it’s time to get into the 21st century. The phone is a droid. The question is, if I take the plunge do I use the phone’s calendar? Google calendar? Outlook calendar and synch? A calendar app? Something else? Some background: One calendar and one only is a rule I live by. I like to see a week or two at a time w. all my appointments shown. I’m used to a month at a time, but in reality I don’t care what happened three weeks ago, except as a record. I think I’ll want to print out past months for a record. I don’t think I want to synch because I’m sure I’ll be dashing out of the house and realize I haven’t synched and won’t have time. Typing on the phone isn’t all that easy, but you knew that. As ever, thanks for your wisdom and generosity. --Susanna *-------------------------------------* *Susanna Opper* Shawenon Communications *Our distinction is communicating your distinction* 413-528-6494 susanna at shawenon.com www.shawenon.com Twitter: @SusannaOpper _______________________________________________ Hidden-discuss mailing list - home page: http://www.hidden-tech.net Hidden-discuss at lists.hidden-tech.net You are receiving this because you are on the Hidden-Tech Discussion list.
