I gave it a quick test drive a few months back. My notes read, "Basic PIM functions plus email, ugly interface, few options to customize. $49.95, for God's sake."
This is going to be a real acid test of my ability to resist the CRIMP compulsion.
I've already given UltraRecall a test drive, and came to the conclusion that I was still happiest with my 3-way ECCO...

5/8/2007
I installed the program without any difficulty, and have played with it just a little.
My first impression is that Debrief appears to be a reasonably powerful program for its low price-- I was especi...

ECCO- to manage my activities and for my research data.
MyInfo- for all the other random information.

A Bad Sign?

MyInfo Vs TreePad
3/15/2007
Just an observation- when I first started looking around for a new outline-style PIM a year or so ago, TreePad was one I considered along with MyInfo.
