ACT is obsolete
RE: ACT is obsolete
Act! is a sophisticated contact manager and it is far from obsolete. Obviously, you have no need for managing alot of contacts and sales prospects, your opinion would be very different if you needed to do that.
You probably have 3 contacts in your database: mom, dad and sis. In which case Outlook is fabulous for handling all three, hopefully without loosing data too often.

RE: ACT is obsolete
Hey "Zippy" - I'm in professional sales, I have about 2,000 contacts in my Address Book, and I guarantee you that my W-2 total is a MULTIPLE of yours.

RE: Huge and clumsy comes to the Palm!
Palm Apps: 323k, 0 records
ACT!: 464k, 779 records
With all of the records now in ACT! and only being ~150k larger than the empty Palm Apps, I wouldn't consider ACT! huge.
Ultimately, it boils down to user preference. I've been using ACT! since 1996 and find that it suits my needs best. Now that I can easily sync all of my ACT! data to my Palm, it's even better for me.

Most people don't need the methodology that Act uses and for them Outlook, or the Palm Desktop work just fine. But, for some, the way in which Act tracks contacts and your activities with them is a very cool feature and one that is not easily duplicated by other Contact Managers.
In other words, to each his own. If you like Outlook, good for you. If you like Act, that's great too. Arguing about this is no different than telling someone that their wrench is no good because you use a hammer. Different tools for different needs.

I bet your W-2 is a multiple of Geeko's above to boot!
Act for Palm
The program will do exactly what I want on my old Palm Vx but not on the Tungsten.
Must Defend ACT
I don't knock Outlook, but I've never been able to embrace it, either.
