    Please note this requires .NET 3.5 so windows 2000 users are a bit stuck. workaround here.

    I've been using this for about a year - very useful. Works fine on XP/sp3.

    A few more shortcuts would be useful, eg: to switch views.

    Very handy to display calendar on desktop, you can also add calender entries directly.

    Great Idea and I really want to use this app...

    ended up being a flaming pile of dog poo on my computer. Vista 64bit w/ Office 2003. many many error messages on everything i tried to do and I had to use task mgr to get out of it.

    I see that it has worked for several people, and it is a great idea, so I give it 3 stars. and will keep an eye out for future releases.
