You'll also notice that just like Outlook or Palm Desktop, RSG! offers Calendar, Contacts, To Do, and Memos modules. RSG!'s Calendar, pictured in Figure D, is well-designed and easy to use, offering day, week, month, and year views.

The Contacts list, pictured in Figure E, allows you to easily view the basic information for any of your contacts.

You can also easily send an email message simply by clicking a contact's email address. Clicking a name gives you access to the details for that contact. The RSG! Contacts module is also designed to handle up to ten phone numbers and four email addresses, as shown in Figure F. That's a pretty slick trick.

Of course, this means that the RSG! conduit has to do some serious maneuvering to fit all that information into your Palm device's five phone number/email address fields (though Outlook handles these extra fields just fine).

To accomplish this, RSG! automatically groups any fields with the same label together into one field, and if necessary, places the remaining numbers in the fifth field (labeled "other"), using the following prefixes to identify the items:

• W = Work;
• H = Home;
• E = Email;
• F = Fax;
• O = Other;
• Ma = Main;
• P = Pager;
• Mo = Mobile.

Of course, this means that the data in your handheld Address Book will be rearranged once you start using RSG!, and you'll have little control over how it gets listed. In most cases, this shouldn't be a problem, and if you need all those numbers, the advantage of having them all on your Palm device will greatly outweigh any inconvenience that this rearrangement may cause.

The To Do list, pictured in Figure G, lets you review your upcoming tasks. As with Contacts, you can perform a search for a particular item, or sort items by category.

Finally, the Memos module pictured in Figure H offers the same ease-of-use and clean design that's found in the other modules.

The Web-based client software is intuitive and works quite well. However, as with all things Web-based, the speed of your Internet connection will be a significant factor in determining how well RSG! works for you. Of course, if you don't want to use the Web-based PIM, you don't have to. You can use Outlook as your primary PIM while you're at your workstation. Just be sure to synchronize Outlook with your online RSG! profile regularly by selecting Synchronize Now! from the RSG! Synchronization menu on your task bar, shown in Figure I.
