the storm is perfectly fine if it does what you want, and you have the understanding that it is in dev stages. Even when the iphone was released it had many bugs and updates that were coming out.
Good on Verizon for not releasing 10000 updates constantly, and doing good QA before releasing updates.
I have had my storm since it was released, the first update made a huge difference. There is still a long way to go, but I am aware of what it is, and understand.

You should be able to use the built-in calendar app. Just set all your personal shit as a different "calendar" and you should be able to tell it not to sync that one up to your computer.
When you create a new item, you'll see an option to choose a calendar it goes in.
For to-do items, I bought UltraList. Good for shopping lists, lists of shit I want to buy, list of shit I need to do on the car, blog ideas, etc.

Not seeing it... when I add a new 'event' it gets pushed to the outlook calendar. No option for different calendars

You're officially too uncool for an iFONE.

MY IPHONE GETS TEXT MESSAGES
- Mike - 03-04-2009
Apparently you can't create the new calendars on the phone. Instead, you have to create them in whatever you sync with. In my case, I have Entourage (Apple's Outlook), which has my work shit, sync to iCal, which has my personal shit, sync to my phone.
Since you're not using a Mac... You'll just have to create different calendars within Outlook.
Seems stupid. What if someone doesn't sync to any sort of calendar? They can't track their schedule in different categories? I have Work, Running, and Home.
- Apoc - 03-04-2009
Can't you just make the sync one way? IOW, whatever you add in the phone doesn't go back to outlook?
- Mike - 03-04-2009
Yes, but he's still got to create the new calendars somewhere. I'm not backing all my shit out to give him a step-by-step
- .RJ - 03-04-2009
Is iCal mac only?

iCal is a calendar standard. most calendar apps support it including google calendar. (and no, iApple didnt iCreate it despite their trademark on the letter i)

That was pretty weak evan
I have it pulling gmail too, but it seems like it only wants to do 1 calendar, its an either or (gmail, iphone, outlook, etc). Pretty big design fault, but I'll live.

I've got $5 on user error.
Yeah, that's right... I respect the iphone more than RJ's ability to use technology properly. :-P
- .RJ - 03-04-2009
I wouldnt bet against that.

I can sync google calendar with outlook... this might be the way to go.
- .RJ - 03-04-2009
Ok, that works, 1 way push (outlook -> google) is perfect.
google calendar on iphone - <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=65923">http://www.google.com/support/calendar/ ... swer=65923</a><!-- m -->
