I don't own a PDA like a Palm Pilot, and I'm not sure I would update something like that. But I'm on the computer all day long checking email (and, of course, working) and this would be a great way to get reminders for things that I often forget (like when yard waste pickup day is, or birthdays).

(Gosh I must be behind the times!) ;) Sandy seems especially useful for those who have a lot of different and time sensitive items to accomplish. At work I have a generic, 8 x 11 spiral-bound calendar with good-sized boxes for each date. I write meetings, in-services, etc in the corresponding date. I like it because I can just pull it off my shelf, open it, and take glance at the entire month. If I do think of something not work-related, I'll email myself a note with the task as the subject. I keep it as "unread" until it's accomplished. Seems to be working for me so far! Guess I'm just "old fashioned" in this area! :) Never heard of this; very interesting concept!
