I really like Chaos Software's product. I use the Intellect! version because it gives me discoverable email (and I like the emailing options better than gmail) but you can do it without email, too. I use it on my server, have a copy on my laptop, and have the hosted version, too, so I can synch between my home and office. There are apps that work on my smartphone and I prefer the calendar over GCal by quite a lot, but at times I do need to synch to GCal and there's a utility for that, too. http://download.cnet.com/Time-and-Chaos/3000-2074_4-10434493.html -- Wendy Marsden, CPA, CFP® -- Tea & Taxes Company -- P.O.
