Hi Adriano or any of the development team.
I hope you are planning to support one handed use of Agendus for WM
Now that WM5 has soft buttons and many devices including qwerty keyboards and scroll wheels the desire to pull out the stylus has certainly diminished!
Pocket Informant has claimed to add some one handed use features to the latest version but with no great success.
I'm not going to tell you the best way to do it, I don't know, but I can tell when something is right.
Looking at the screenshots it seems you may have this in mind already.

Hi,
thank you for your feedback. I totally agree with you one handed navigation is paramount nowadays.
Having implemented one handed navigation on Agendus Palm (where all pda / smartphone models since 2+ year now have a very nice object highlighting system allowing devs to make the app completely "browsable" with dpad), we will bring the same paradigm over to the WM counterpart, as much as possible.

Thanks, adriano, for noting this. To me, one-handed operation is very important.
Please, please also support WM2003 devices.
My WM2003SE pocket pc phone is serving me well and I don't want to buy another WM5 one too soon.
I can't wait to be beta testing Agendus now!

One hand navigation is VERY important:) I have not found any calendar apps that come close to Agendus, I really hope that the WM version is close to the Palm OS version. I can't wait to try this out.

Agenda One seems to do a great job, but I just know the Iambic people could take it to the next level with Agendus for Windows Smartphone.
I am currently using Agendus Pro on my 700p and testing Agenda One on a T-Mobile Dash. I am making a complete switch to the Dash soon and I know one thing I am going to miss most is Agendus. I can't wait until you guys port it over.
So far, the differences I notice between Agenda One on the Dash and Agendus on the 700p are...
- No rollover task option on Agenda One. It becomes very time consuming and annoying to manual forward each task.
- Cannot assign tasks to contacts
- Cannot set the background color based on category - only the text color
- One thing pretty cool about Agenda One is they allow you to set time zones for things. For example, you can set it up so that your work related tasks are hidden on Saturdays & Sundays.
I am very excited about the prospect of Agendus for Windows Mobile Smartphone!

Sorry Im confused.....will this windows version be SAME layout and same function as Palm version?
I mean will it look and perform the same? On the Palm , it fast and easy to use - will that carry over to the Windows version?
Also, with pricing, I own 11.05 pro for palm, will there be a discount for us?
thanks!
