Don't waste your money!!!!!!
NO. I repeat. NO CALENDAR functionality. None, nada....
Ive been a users of other Agendus platform applications and was expecting similar functionality.
I was hoping this would be at least on par with Pocket Informant in performance and functionality. But Agendus does not even come close.
I understand that Apple SDK does not open up the iPhone calendar but Pocket informant gets around that by utililizing google calendar. So a work around uses g-cal/ exchange to sync back and forth.
Agendus does not mate with anything outside of this phone. Except today's weather and quote of the day.... WTF?
Bottom line is how can Agendus call this a complete PIM when there is no Calendar.
Do yourself a favor. Don't spend $7.99 here and get something useless. Spend $12.99 for Pocket informant for a truly useful tool.
Agendus is just a fancy contact list. Nothing more.

There are three things wrong with this program:
1) It lacks a calendar - often when I'm setting up a task I need to view a calendar to get the right date or the right week.
2) It syncs with nothing - I don't just live on my iPhone I also go online and have a computer. Anything I put in Agendus is stuck in Agendus. Any task I want put into Agendus I have to drag out my iPhone.
3) Those of us who have used Agendus on the Palm platform have expectations which this program doesn't begin to meet. Perhaps that's not fair to Iambic but then again, naming this program Agendus isn't fair to users either.
Iambic has a great deal of work to do before this program can get more than a 3 star rating for the program they've claimed to write. We need syncing with the desktop or at least with an online service. We need a calendar. We need repeating todos that work. Get to it guys.
Glad it's here, hoping for quick improvements
As a Palm owner, I've used Agendus for years, and it's one of the apps I've been hoping to see on my iPhone since my first iPhone purchase. So far, the iPhone app is a shadow of the Palm version; NO Calendar, NO custom icons, ugly color pallette (in contrast to the elegance of the iPhone), too many other niggling deficiencies to detail. Almost makes me want to go out and buy a Pre tomorrow, just to be able to use my old Palm platform version. As long as Iambic made us wait, Agendus/iPhone should have been MUCH better at launch!
