If you want a really good calendar, not just a widget, I highly recommend calengoo. It will sync your full history, manage multiple calendars, allow lots of customization, and is fast and reliable.

k-9 is a popular free email client that will do different signatures for different accounts.

Using CompanionLink & DejaOffice and USB Synch, I was able to move data from Palm Desktop 6.2 to HTC Evo 4G. Haven't found any problems yet.

The Treo 755p's functionality is superior, but at least the data is available now on the Android phone. I am still hoping for/anticipating Pimlico Software (Pimlical) to issue a version that will synch via USB with Palm Desktop.

My major worries have been soothed. 1800 contacts and 11 1/2 years of calendar entries, and a couple hundred memos all transferred first time without a problem.

I still use Deja Office but for Calendar and Addressbook I must designate the Palm Deskbook as the primary and not allow the android data to overwrite or supersede the Palm data. Otherwise there is an intermittent problem and I lose contacts or date entries. For important infomation I can note it in the Android but have to re-enter it again on the desktop to make sure it is not lost.

I have little confidence in the program, unfortunately. The tech help is nice but does not fix the problem. The Palm worked so much better for the crucial datebook and addressbook functions. It also elminated the multiple categories I had. They are gone.
