- Great desktop component
Cons
- A bit expensive
- The built-in HTML export does some funky stuff when the source is browsed
Why Did I Download/Buy This?
I bought this because it was so highly recommended on one of my mailing lists. I didn’t think I would end up using it as a productivity system, but rather as a place to organize notes.
How Do I Use This?
Notestudio is my mainstay at work. Everything goes in there, from projects to notes to timesheets to reference materials. At home, I use it for blog writing, notetaking, and reference material. I learned some Python to extend some add-ons, and most of my system is automated.
Sorry, not available
I was very disappointed when Dogmelon decided to stop selling Notestudio last year. I really think it was one of the best pieces of Palm software out there.
