AGBB 112...My Thoughts

[MartyS]

THanks for offering the early beta discount to us. I downloaded the trial version of Agendus this morning and installed it on my BB Curve 8320.

Overall, I like the look and feel of the software, and like it much better than the "standard" BB stuff I've been using.

However, a couple of suggestions. First, there should be a default screen that you can set when you first open agendus. Personally, for me it would be the Weekly Grid screen, but I'm sure that each of us has our own preferences.

I couldn't find anywhere to do that, and did notice that it defaulted to the last screen that Agendus was on.

Secondly, one of the more frustrating things I found is that Agendus doesn't use the "standard" screen navigations keys (like space bar for page down). I find myself having to use the trackball for everything. I would like to be able to use the P for previous page, N for next page, etc... things that have become somewhat defacto standard on the BB.

Now, that said, I've only used it for a half an hour, and will play more today, but had to pass those on.

Thanks.

THanks for the quick response, Michael. But as much as I want Agendus on my BB ( I used it all the time on my Palm and Treo) I think I'm going to wait for the release, and maybe a couple of updates.

There's just a few too many things missing right now (and I understand why - so I'm not taking Iambic to task) for me to work with it. It's a bit cludgy and when more things like navigation and automatic scrolling are in there, I'll take another look at it.

Is there an e-mail list or something that I can subscribe to to be notified as new features are added? Once I see the things that I need, I can re-download and evaluate it.

THanks!
