"A Superior PIM for those who use MS Outlook"
Version: Outlook on the Desktop 1.4
Pros
This little software is really impressive. It lets you bring MS Outlook to your desktop to add, delete and modify daily tasks... without having to bring up MS Outlook itself.
It's icon sits in the sys tray... just double click twice and there it is... on your desktop... This little thing's a beaut!
Cons
Maybe a centralized "help" file would help... the help is all right there but you just have to know where to click... for some things right click the sys tray icon... for other things right click near the top date bar. But really that's being picky... this app is a hidden gem...
