I need someone's help and opinion, I am considering changing from the palm to the mobile windows format. I have looked at the windows calendar format and it is obviously inadequate compared to agendus pro. I see that there is a pro for windows mobile and what is it like compared to the palm platform, is it as effective?
Thank you,
Colotimber

Hi djudish,
What do you use your calendar for primarily? What features are most important? :D

Thank you for answering Nancy, I fully utilize Agendus and have had professional for a number of years as well a couple of other Iambic products. I have a Treo 650 and have for the last 2 years, I like the way Windows handles mail in the smart phone and the web browser but I don't want to give up the convenience of Agendus Pro, I guess I am looking to be assured that many of the features in Agendus Pro for Treo is in the Windows for smart phone. Since I do not currently own a phone with that format I can not see for myself and want to know before I buy a phone in the Windows format.

Colotimber,
I am glad the screenshots are helpful.
I think that you have to be prepared for a change. First, you are moving to entirely different platform that will present a learning curve. Furthermore, the WM version is very very young so we have a ways to go before we see it equal the Palm version. The description and screenshots should give you some sort of idea what features from the palm side are included at this point. Some of the features work a bit differently on a WM device so that has to be taken into consideration. However, if there is something specific you want to ask about please ask us here. That is the best way to determine whether or not you want to make the move.
Also, you can read the manual. (http://www.iambic.com/download/windowsmobilesmartphone/agenduspro/doc/agendus_sm_pro_en.pdf) That can be very helpful as well. :up: :D
BTW, what device are you looking to buy? Treos are called smartphones but are not actually smartphones. The term "Smartphone" has to do with a WM device that does not have a touch screen. The Treo WM device is a pocket pc phone edition OS that does have a touch screen. That is different from a smartphone such as a Motorola Q that runs WM Smartphone OS since it is a device that does not have a touch screen.
