Re: Why no Note view?

Mimi,
I also often work in the note mode. In fact I currently have a use  
case that I could provide as an example. I am looking for Day-Cares/ 
Pre-schools for my kids. I make notes of all the good ones I am  
interested in. Then as I schedule the interviews, I stamp some of  
those as events and put them on the calendar.
Not having a note view does make it difficult to scan thru the notes  
to check which ones are left to be scheduled. Lately I have been  
resorting to stamping those as tasks just for easier access.
