The battle between Personal Information Managers (PIM) in the Windows Mobile Professional (touch screen) environment is quite competitive. Earlier this year we reviewed WebIS' latest version of Pocket Informant and Birdsoft's new Windows Mobile Pro version of eXtreme Agenda. Now it is time to compare these two PIMs, not necessarily to pick a winner but to provide as unbiased a view as possible of the major features. The definition of Personal Information Managers on Wikipedia describes a PIM as "a type of application software that functions as a personal organizer. As an information management tool, a PIM's purpose is to facilitate the recording, tracking, and management of certain types of 'personal information'". This comparison is based on my view of "personal information" which I categorized as:
- Home screen
- Calendar events
- Address book/Contacts
- Personal notes/journal
- Task lists
- Project management
- Templates/Macros
