CESD has switched his focus to Pimlical, his next generation
cross-platform calendar application, which is written in Java.
So no Java, no Pimlical...

I now use an iPhone, and make do with the built in calendar. I'd love a
Pimlical for iPhone, but CESD has been clear enough that he's not going
to split his efforts over multiple applications, so if it cannot run a
version of Pimlical, it's not gonna happen.

Right now Pimlical only runs in Windows, but CESD has indicated that
he's gotten to a point that he's satisfied with what he's got in
Pimlical at this time... So hopefully he'll get to work on the cross
platform bit soon now!

Most likely candidates are android, windows mobile or linux (Mac OSX)...

But an "iDateBk"? Don't hold your breath, I'm afraid!
