Treo calendar function question - Treo Forums

Hello
I am looking to upgrade from my unreliable HP HW6515 to a Treo 650 ($199 upgrade from Cingular).
My question is this: the HP had a nice feature (common to all Windows Mobile devices) where it would show my 4 upcoming appointments; is this feature available on the Treo?
With that feature I would never forget any important events in my day (as long as I remembered to enter it in the phone

). I could not find this info anywhere and even tried to mess with an emulator.
Thank you

Hi, rsg, welcome to ET. I don't actually use the built-in Palm calendar so I don't know if it has that capability or not. There are some more robust 3rd-party apps that can probably give you what you want. One is Today, which is freeware, and another is 2day, which costs a little. I use Agendus, which can do that but it's definitely not free. Datebk seems to be popular also, but I have no experience with that one.

The built-in Calendar has an Agenda view which will show you upcoming appointments and tasks (to-dos). Personally, I prefer Datebk6 for the sheer amount of features over the built-in Calendar.
