I love my wife, Becky. She is a died-in-the-wool throwback to an older era. It’s one of her more endeering qualities. Her favorite show growing up and still now is Little House on the Prarie and that she would probably be happier living in that day. She keeps a paper organizer in her car to track all the many things going on in her life and also writes most everything down on her wall calendar in the kitchen. Well, she has been looking for something better that she can keep with her at all times to make sure she doesn’t double-book an event. After a little discussion and a bit of research, we picked up a Palm Z22. It’s a cute little thing and she’s looking forward to giving it a spin.

Of course, beeing the good geek husband that I am, I made sure that it will work properly with iSync and that Palm Desktop will still work under Rosetta on the soon-to-arrive MacBook Pro. I’ve read that the iSync to Palm setup is not ideal, but it should be good enough to allow what she enters on the PDA to be put into iCal so I can see her schedule when I’m at work (and vice versa with my schedule synced to her PDA).

I’ll probably comment in a few days on how well it turns out (or not). Fortunately, I confirmed that Office Depot has a 14 day return policy so if it isn’t a satisfactory solution, we can take it back.
