Re: Datebk on iPhone now possible?

I would second the vote for Week Calendar on iPhone. It is only $1.99. It does everything that I used to do on Datebk6, and in some ways better. It has templates, custom colors, icons, and many other features. I did not use the todos or contact management of Datebk6. The more integrated PIM for iPhone is Pocket Informant. But Pocket Informant calendar in some ways is not as good as Week Calendar. No, Week Calendar does some things better than Datebk6, because it can sync directly with Google Calendar, allowing me to monitor many calendars at once, and easily customize my views. This is no weakness of Datebk6 in the sense that in it's day, Datebk6 was stuck with Palm OS which did not have the cloud based capabilities we now have. I was using Datebk6 on the Palm Pre with the emulator until a calendar came along for iOS that would meet my needs. The most important thing for me is the templates, and once Week Calendar came out with that, I made the switch to iPhone. iPhone is truly terrific, I have to say. Week Calendar finally gets me back to where I need to be from a scheduling and business standpoint.
