The Sunbird Project

Does anyone know if there are any nice freeware calendars, or organizers out there besides Sunbird?

I used Sunbird last year when it was in very early Alpha, and I was quite surprised at how stable it was, so even though it's still in Alpha I was considering to download it again, and use it, but honsetly I'd love to have a final product version of something instead if I can find it.

One other thing, I have Office 2003, besides Outlook, are there any organizer plugins for it, or does Office 2003 have a organizer calendar it comes with, because I don't really see anything in it, other then Outlook, which I don't care to use.

THANKS
 
Just a tip to not rely on Google Calendar actually SMSing you. Most have arrived well after they are required. (I had to drive so fast to make a Dr's appointment yesterday I thought I might be visiting his office building by way of the ER.)

Otherwise Google's calendar is nice.
 
Rainlendar

"Rainlendar is a customizable calendar

# Small and lightweight
# Different type events can have different appearence
# Supports Windows transparency
# Synchronizes events between several clients
# Localized for multiple languages
# Shows an alarm when an event is due
# Supports iCal files.
# Shows Outlook's appointments
# Includes a todo-list
# Works also as Litestep plugin
# Displays the current date in tray icon
# Can stick to the desktop (i.e. doesn't hide with Show Desktop)
# Hotkeys for quick access
# Easy skinning with an UI


Actually I prefer to keep my calendar on paper so I can grab it fast at the odd moment a brainstorm hits w/o having to be at a booted up computer, but sometimes I find the task list on Rainlendar helpful too.

What about the other mozilla calendar? Certainly is more polished than sunbird.

Hmm didn't know there was one, in what, as a seperate calendar or a part of Mozilla?

EssentialPIM There is a free version and a Pro version with some added features.

Thanks, now I'm starting to wonder if I should just use "Outlook", but then I've heard it said that Thunderbird was more secure than Outlook, which I can't believe since Outlook is probably the most widely used email client by professionals worldwide.

THANKS
