New software for my BlackBerry 8703e

I'm sick of lugging my Palm Treo 650 around. I've decided to download various programs to replace the key ones I had on my Treo. This is especially important as I've been spending lots more time on the road.

Tomorrow I head off to the midwest, but not to Chicago - St. Louis. Should be fun, I've never been there.

First step:

1. Install BlackBerry Desktop software (and pray it doesn't try to synch my outlook DB with my blackberry - which is synch'd to my employer's DB).
2. install several trial programs (I hope they work):

  • Ascendo DataVault (seems the closest replacement to MobiPassword
  • ToDo Matrix - I want a Franklin Covey style task list - I'm hoping it will deliver.
  • Ascendo IJuggle - an alternative to ToDo Matrix - I may install one or the other.
  • Ascendo Money - requires that I import a file - integration with Quicken unclear (frustrating)

I need the DataVault most of all. Will let you know how the other programs work out.

Regards, makingourway

PS any recommendations?

What's wrong with the 650?

If you use a cell phone, why not get one of the palm/cell combo's, instead of trying to make a palm out of BlackBerry?
