I've done various versions of this with Daytimer for 28 years. Before the Palm/Treo, it was just typing a to-do list in Word, and now it's graduated up to Outlook and a Blackberry. I have gray Daytimer Storage Binders from 1986--green binders from 1982. I document everything and it pays off thousands of times over! Helps me keep track of clients throughout my 28 years of real estate. Staying organized keeps me ahead of the competition!

I am looking for one that will work on my desktop and synch with my iPhone. So far, no luck. If your app does not, do you have any recommendations? In advance, thank you.

Another example of experimenting to see what works best. Maybe take two shots, one zoomed and one not, if the timing allows. As a result of a new business I started, I only recently realized how much fun photography is and am about to take a class to maximize my fun! Thanks for the starter pointers.

I like to track tasks with my Centro but keep all my appointments in two page per week planner (compact). I have been buying used (from the Store) PDA holders (for my earlier Palm TX), but would appreciate a model that held the standard compact refill plus notebooks and had a clasp to operate the PDA within the unit (for the compact). What do you recommend? Yes, Daytimer could present more options for pda gadgets and paper planning.
