[maemo-users] Garnet VM & PIM

[From: Dr. Nicholas Shaw]

>> 2) No serious PIM on the platform.  GPE is "conceptware".  It doesn't
even handle alarms acceptably.  No icons for events.  No categories in todo.
Sync through erminig is a great hack but a nasty implementation.
>> Gene Cash developed some scripts in python that are better, but still
miles from a good Palm PIM, and kinda slow.  He had trouble installing
OS2008 so abandoned all the OS2008 users.  Another great hack, of >> course,
but not professional at all.

 

I forgot. J I've become used to using GPE.  Last year I posted a few issues
such as categories aren't sorted, and there's no real way to accurately sort
contacts (tried using 'Name:' for people and 'Company' for business'
thinking that 'Name' would sort by last name (assuming last name is the last
entry) while Company would sort by first name (assuming it's the first
entry) but that doesn't seem to be the case).  Other than that, I've come to
depend upon GPE (todo, contacts, and calendar).
