Quickie Hands-On Report--iCal

We downloaded, setup and used iCal a little bit yesterday. It is very pretty, simple to use and, so far, meets all of our simple functionality requirements. Some have complained that iCal is very slow. It's not a speed demon but it runs just fine on our 800 MHz TiBook, all that we can check it on while on travel. Others have complained that it suddenly quits too frequently but we have not had one unexpected quit yet. The acid test for us will be how well iCal imports entries from Netscape Calendar and re-exports them and how well it will sync with our T68i mobile phone and iPod once iSync comes out.
