Dust and organisation

[allana]

Why is it that whenever I get a housework epithany, that I forget that I am allergic to dust and should therefore damp-dust? I'll be sneezing for the rest of the week now, and all because I am forgetful and lazy. Maybe I'll remember this one day?

Whilst chucking stuff out, I came across my Palm V. I'm ashamed to say that I haven't used it since before we moved house last year. Ooops! I think I decided that after giving up work I didn't need it to organise myself. I may have been ever so slightly mistaken there. It's currently charging and I know that all the data will have been lost. Yup, everything is gone. Dammit. I'll have to go on a spree of calling everyone and double-checking birthdays.

Do any of you guys *looks hopefully at friends list* use Palms (or similar)? Are there any cool must-have apps that have appeared in the last two years? I seem to remember that you want to swap out the provided date book with another app?

I have a couple of them lying around the house, but somehow I never got into using a Palm on regular basis.

I'm thinking about trying again, not so much for organizing myself, but for reading stories :).

I'd never thought about using them to read stories :) I'm now giving it serious thought -- although, I'm never away from a PC for *that* long.

It is hard to make a clean break from pen and paper though... I've just spent the past three hours lying on the bed with a printout and notebook. Sometimes you just need to do it that way.
