It is much faster and I like the drawer. Haven't checked into the new features yet. iSync shows up in Software Update immediately after you update iCal.

ya the new iCal rules =D.. the event customization box finally makes sense and it's nice to go from 4 tabs to one.

Has anybody had any problems syncing with their palm device? Last time they updated iCal I was unable to sync my Tibook to my palm 515 until they posted another update. I don't want to go through that again.

Thanks in advance.

Finally, it doesn't Quit when you close the window.

Thanks Apple!

The drawer is a pain if you are on a small screen. Basically you have to keep your iCal main window horizontally small so that the drawer doesn't go off screen.

Couldn't Apple have made it resize the main window if the drawer doesn't fit? Interface going off screen? What is this, Windows?

Functionally I like the drawer, it definitely simplified the process. I can see the complaint for people with smaller screens though. Also, it looks funny with the To Do list and the Drawer open.

Also, it seems to respect the system color scheme a little better (not perfect, I still have blue highlights when using gray).

Nice update though.
