what about 5 week 7 week thing how does it work?

It makes no difference, George tells you when things are due and they stay there until you do them, it then reforcasts them for whatever frequency you have each individual job set for.

The best thing to do is download the free trial.

We use Pocket George (Palm) and it makes life so much easier than using a book.

yes i agree you don't want your work to turn red!!

George is very good, one change I would like to see in the program though is when you have worked a job that is overdue for it to move the next due date according to the system clock, you do need to be a little carefull at the moment with this, I sometimes forget to change the done date and it doesnt help confidence when you turn up thinking that 4 weeks went fast, maybe its just me though I'm not getting any younger :

If not I'm sure its on pauls next to do list, but yes well worth the money Stuart

I paid £39.00 for a palm Zire 71 from eBay

« **Reply #17 on:** April 09, 2006, 09:00:17 pm »

We run 3 x Zire 21's they do the job fine and there is no games to waste peoples time, use the notepad to record anything that happens during the day, ie new work, cancellations, enquiries, etc

been looking on ebay
so many to choose from does it matter what memory it has

just dont know what to do
plus is it a one off payment for the download or each year? is it £50?

« **Reply #19 on:** April 09, 2006, 10:29:51 pm »

One off payment stu. I really don't think memory comes into it either mate. It's £12 a year for internet backup of your work.
