Thanks for the comment, Andrew -- I would agree that the synching email/contacts and appointments and doing so with mobile devices are a couple of big holes that online calendars have yet to fill.

And I also agree that if they were just used for scheduling pubic events, that would definitely be a niche market :-)

Calendar + Email = Outlook Until any of these online calendars can synch my email/contacts and calendar with my handheld (Blackberry/Treo) then they will be relegated to a niche product used to schedule meetings at trade shows with disparate teams, or pubic event notices.

I have zero interest in keeping more than one calendar, and right now it is Outlook as it is the only one that synch's with my Blackberry effectively and easily.
