The winners of the new laptop are: Taskman, Froot, Powercord, smssuite, Korganizer, with honorable mention to KinkattaLite. I think Puzz-le should have won. Check out many Zaurus applications here."

  2. Wot, no calendar? by gruntvald · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Though there aren't as many applications as you'd get for the Palm, for example, they really are way more powerful. But I couldn't see a single calendar application, let alone one that will sync with outlook. And that's a serious omission, that would stop my company from looking at it for development. If only Mozilla, or even netscape back in the day, could have worked with some free calendar server, it would have brought up some serious choices against exchange.

      Zaurus ships with a calendar, and Intellisync Windows client for syncing to Outlook. If you meant a *better* calendar, well, I agree completely (theKompany does have one, I believe). But it does indeed sync to Outlook right out of the box. The trick is to use the Intellisync software, not the QTopia Desktop (much like Palm's solution).

    Maynard, That was the Gimp. We locked the Gimp in the basement and abused it ritually, not WIPO TROLL, just the Gimp.

Now if only there could be actual anti-troll technology to rid slashdot of posters perpatrating such idiocies as goatse links and claims of first (insert comment here). Irrelevancies also...
