I'm trying to keep a personal calendar and my work calendar separate. I really don't want to carry another PDA, so I was considering using my cell phone.

Does anyone successfully use their calendar feature on their cell phone, or is this feature really just for show? I'm thinking people probably use these extra features about 1% of the time.

I have my T637 sync to iCal. Works great in a pinch.

I use the calender function. (T630) Works great, altough I try to manage my calander with iCal since typing in all that stuff with the phone's keyboard is slow and annoying. But it's a good feature.

lol, I can agree. It's stuff like the seldom-seen doctor's appointment I think twice about -- but I can leave that on my home calendar or on a stcky or something

I use the calendar on my T610 a lot. Manage everything in iCal, then sync it to the phone. Works fine for me, especially the reminder function.

I sync my phone (nokia 6230) with my pc laptop (outlook calendar/contacts/notes) and it works great. waiting for apple to include support for it on isync, so I can switch over to my mac for all my sync-ing.

I have eight different calendars in iCal, synced via iSync and Bluetooth with my S65.

Been using it with my S55 for two years. Very effective.
