I have been frustrated by the lack of Mac based Palm/Web
calender/address sync applications. For the last few years we have been
making do with Truesync (from Starfish/Yahoo/Excite) running on Virtual
PC - and being ignored as Mac users of Visor/Palm.
Well, it looks like the tide has turned with
http://www.scheduleonline.com/ which has a Mac Sync application in Beta
for their calendering/address and scheduling site. I found it by chance
at
http://www.macupdate.com - downloaded it with very low expectations
as perhaps a one way import tool - BUT I found that the site and the
sync app is quite good. The Sync app works with Visors/Palms, Palm
Desktop 2.6 and Mac Os 9.04/9.1. I have been using it without crashing
once - the only drawback I have found so far is that one has to turn off
the Palm address, datebook and to-do conduits manually before running
this app - but it works!! My expectations as a Mac/Visor/Palm user has
been exceeded so far.
The
http://www.scheduleonline.com/ site is also not bad considering they
use alot of Java/Javascript and they have paid vs free memeberships.
They have group scheduling, resaource sharing and 15MB of free space.
Here's the download link to Macupdate:

I do not work for, nor have any interest in
http://www.scheduleonline.com/ - just an ignored Mac user :-) I
think they could use some serious feedback from us Mac/Visor/Palm users
- it is still in Beta!.
Thanks AM
