Calendar Software Tools : Which is easiest on my memory ?

I have found for WM5 for calendar, contacts and tasks.
Pocket Informant : http://www.pocketinformant.com/index.php
Agenda Fusion : http://www.developerone.com/agendafusion/index.htm
Super Calendar : http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/sc_overview.html
I am currently using the today Plugin for calendar and tasks "Today Agenda" (http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda&lang=en) which is compatible with Informant and Agenda. I have not tested it with Super Calendar yet.
Questions :
1) Calendar tool with least memory stamp ?
2) Least buggy ?
3) Which is BEST ?

Only one I can comment on is Agenda Fusion.
I ditched it after taking far too long to open upwards of 5secs - and was too much to bear if needing a quick TODAY check or quick "Need a phone number" fix.
I also disagreed with the fact I paid for v7 and then had to pay an upgrade fee for v8 that "apparently" solved some compatibility issues with WM5.
Havent tried any of the others - sorry.

Sometimes when the TODAY AGENDA is Running and I change My TODAY SCREEN (wallpaper) The Aganda goes into "Updating" mode and does not update itself for a long time.
The other features work perfectly all right . It is just This Agenda which does Not show any entry.
I have tried HARD RESETTING the device and Fixing The Today agenda Right in the beginning.
The problem is STILL there.
ANY SUGGESTION?

I use the in-build PIM and SPB Diary as today plug-in. Very stable and surprisingly fast. Since most of my calendar/task/mails are now done on the today plug-in, which PIM to use at the back does not bother me anymore. SPB Diary can be installed in external storage hence save on the internal memory.

Depending on how heavy your schedule is.
I've used `Pocket Informant` before and its layout and stuff are pretty good. I came from a Palm5 device and if you heard, Palm5 agenda stuff are pretty impressive and this Pocket Informant is almost as good.
However, Pocket Informant is relatively slow on startup (not much on a memory issue, just start up). However, once you got it started up and sitting on your taskbar, you can access it instantly. I would recommend that if you have heavy schedule.
For my case, I use Pocket Breeze together with the built-in PIM (of WM5). Since I have `medium weight` schedule, I'm pretty happy with PBreeze on my Today screen. Since I can set PBreeze to display my stuff appearing 7 days in advance, I don't usually go into the built-in PIM to check on my stuff. PBreeze has also direct links to your appointment/task for which you can then edit them. And I have the WM5-new-menu program that can create new task/appt easily, I hardly use any sort of PIM (e.g. Pocket Informant).
Anyway, these software has trial period, give it a go and see if you like it.

Well frankly speaking My Schedule on Appointments is Not so heavy, Just 3-5 entries a day.
Yes I have tried SPB diary But SINCE MY ADDRESS BOOK has 2800 or more Contacts that does take time to load up...
I have tried A New software (FREEWARE) Calender Plus the Link of which I got from here only and thats just working Fine Now...

Calendar Today Plugin: http://www.mohairsofa.com/Default.aspx/document/10

I have tested Super Calendar and Agenda Fusion.
Agenda seams to much calendar for me.
Supper Calenda is lite. It enhances the Month and Year view compared to the WM5 standard calendar. Does not do tasks or contacts.
Todays Agenda is the BEST today plugin, and seams to work ok with Super Calenda.
I have found Ulti Planner at : http://www.birdsoft.biz/upmain.htm
which is lite on memory and covers calendar, tasks, contacts. Also has text in month view.

Change the program which is started by 'manila'

Hello.
I've searched a lot, but failed to find anything which solves my problem.
Is there a way to change the program which is launched by 'manila'?
E.g.
I've installed 'Pocket Informant' as my favorite agenda application.
Even if I set Pocket Informant to my default calendar application, the standard calendar is launched when I touch on schedules at the home screen in TF3D.
Any help is appreciated.
TIA

Will do the job.

Works just fine for me.
Thx a lot.

Contatcs category

If I close Contacts application with Filter by one Category, when I open it again, it shows my all contacts, is it possible to do that when you open Contacts application it shows contacts filtered by one category?
Thank you.

Not possible, as far as I know.
Use iContact instead, it allows you to start in Favourites view and the Favourites category is definable.
I'm using iContact BE 6.4.5 with the Lycox Diamond skin.

Can I use icontact with TouchFlo 3D?
Where can i get it?

Can I synchronize it with Outlook in my PC?

I have installed it and it is Ok.
I see that it substitute Contacts and so, forget my question about synchronization.
Is it no possible to close it? (it remains active and you have to close it trought Task manager, is it?)
Thank you.

How do you defined the Favourite category?
In Favourite you have the contacts that you add to favourites by pressing the star, but can you asign categories in Outlook and fix one of this categories (family, for exemple) as Favourite?
Thank you

These things are configurable through iContact config.
To get it working properly with TF3D you may have to use a TF3D editor.

Thank you.
All my problems was that iContact config did not appear on my PDA settings. But I have found it in iContact carper an run it directly and, now, it seems to work well.

Home page: Calender (appointments) to Pocket Informant

I found something interesting while fiddling with my TP2. I've been trying to change the Home page: Calender (appointments) to point to PI with no avail. PI is the default PIM for my phone and the right soft key was changed to point to it.
Here's the catch: When TF3D (Manila) shows an appointment, it will open to MS poutlook calender. It so happened that I have no recorded appointment showing today and it merely showed "Calender." I pressed on it and it went on to fire up PI, much ot my surprise. I added an appointment and tested but it went to MS poutlook. I deleted the appointment and the "Calender" again opens up PI.
Now if someone can help to point me to the registry on the calling up of appointments by TF3D from MS poutlook, it may just be possible to change the default calender to whatever we choose (PI and what have you).
Thanks in advance.

This is something I am having trouble with too!
I have used SSMaHo and when click on "calendar" in the programs screen it works fine....just not for the appointment links on the today screen.
Thanks in advance!

Would be great. I have been searching and found nothing so far....

Titanium: Calendar Panel working with Pocket Informant

When Pocket Informant 8 is your default calendar application, when you tap on any calendar page or use the right soft key 'Today'
It all does the same thing, opens up PI calendar.
Would be wonderful to have a page open a new appointment, a page to open month view, agenda view, ...
Any Ideas?
If this is impossible, a new panel could be created with these static links, but then how would you get a page showing today's appointment & tomorrow's appointment?

Any other ideas on this?

Is Pocket Informant 8 compatible with WM 6.5 ????????
EDIT: Yes it is... installed from PC and works well.

Are you sure it works fully? There's a known issued with reoccurring events in PI on WM 6.5:

Apparently this won't be fixed until PI 9.
