One of the best apps, but not for everyone |
I've been using Datebk4 for the last month, and I've found it absolutely invaluable. It's allowed me to set up and display my schedule, and the personal information I need to organize and access, just the way I want to.
HOWEVER, it took a fair amount of initial investigation to decide whether Datebk4 would be valuable enough, what features I wanted to use (and didn't want to use), and to figure out how to set up my data using these features. Anyone planning to use DateBk4 -- even with DateBk3/DateBook+ experience -- will need to spend some time perusing the (very good) on-line manual that comes with DateBk4. I think Datebk4's about the only app where I've read the manual before using the app in years -- and I needed to!
You don't have to configure Datebk4 completely the first time out -- I utilized various features as I went along -- but it's important to know what features are available, to decide what you need to do.
Other than that, great app, and at the price extremely good value for money.

Interface too complex |
I love DateBk3, but found myself wanting the 'contact' linking offered by Action Names and DateBk4. So I tried them both, for a month each, and I could not come to terms with the complexities of the DB4 interface. It's very feature rich, seems to do a lot, but it's like surfing those websites that take 6 'clicks' to get where you want to go - instead of the 3 it could take.
In the end AN won it, simply because of simplicity.
I still keep a 'weather eye' on DB4, but that's all. For now..

Crashes?? NONE! |
It's a very stable product, the sole reason I use my Palm V it seems! It's super stable, I run overclocked at 32mhz and 11 hacks running and it's the one program that never crashes and I use it the most! I love DateBk4!

Definitely should be on everyone's Visor |
I don't understand those of you with 8MB Deluxes saying things like, "too large of a program." Umn, what do you have on your Visor, anyway? The whole NY Public Library??? (I'm willing to bet you have at least 3MB hanging loose with nothing to do.)
This is an app that should be on everyone's PDA. There is a very good reason why Handspring licensed it: Datebk4 is reason enough to buy a Palm OS-based PDA.

Best use of memory |
Keeps me on track and organized. What else would you need to use this memory on anyhow?
You can definatly sacrifice chess or some other useless applications for this. Especially if you own the Visor Deluxe.

Must Have |
I'd been a registered user of Datebk3 for more than two years. Even though the update to Datebk4 would have been free, I still paid for it - this app is worth every penny.

I Love it |
Main plusses:
- Icons make the monthly view very useful
- linking is a great convenience
- repeating floating events addresses a real shortcoming in datebook +
