Great PIM application!

Hmmm...I'm running 8.1 right now and when I check for upgrades it says that my software is up to date.

Maybe it'll get pushed out to to the mobile community soon.

Thanks for the heads up though!

Attached the ZIP to the first post now.

I couldn't get PI to upgrade itself from 8.1 either. Just ran the CAB instead.

Right on!

How's the "Touch Mode?" How finger friendly is it?

[CozBoogie]

It's pretty responsive. I'm running it on a 240x240 screen on my 700wx and it gets the job done. Though I usually go back to just the soft key menus...they're pretty well thought out, etc.

On a bigger screen I'm sure the touch experience will be more rewarding.
