Version: Palm Desktop 4.1.4
"Doesn't work very well with Vista"
Pros: Palm Desktop 4.1.4 does an adequate job of tracking contact and calendar information in Vista. I don't sync my Palm so I can't comment on hotsync performance.
Cons: The calendar alarms are unreliable in Vista. No problems under Windows 2000 pro. Specifically, when I put my Vista computer into sleep mode overnight, any alarms that pass while the computer is asleep get skipped. Furthermore, the alarm executable often dies or I have to manually restart it in order for alarms to work. I upgraded to Palm Desktop by Access 6.2.2 and these problems don't occur. While the upgrade went smoothly and alarms work correctly, this software isn't without its own set of annoyances. Overall, however, the 6.2.2 version works better for me on Vista.
