Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Bacon?
Brings home the blood sausage, maybe. I can't remember ingesting or even seeing any authentic bacon whilst on your island nation :)

But to put sarcasm aside - PIM? Do you really *need* a computer to manage personal information? (BTW isn't all information personal to you?) Email could be - once was - a valuable thing. Scope cancer destroyed the idea of useful electronic communication.

I hated Lookout from the first minute. I once was a "key player" (oh God how sickening is the yuppie lexicon) in "migrating" 40000 "users" from CC:Mail to Lookout. We accomplished it at great expense and labor - and the end result was - MOTS. Nothing was really done, nothing accomplished. It was a Waste of Time, Effort, Money, and Spirit.

Computers in corporate life are crutches for crippled management strategy. Outlook, Groupwise, Wiseass, NotUs Motes, etc. etc. etc. Ximpleton etc. etc. etc. are the sponge rubber on that crutch that fits nicely under the corporate armpit.

New Whatever.
I'm not going to go into the gory details of my job, but it involves tracking multiple conversations with a lot of different people both within the company and without.

Yes, I need a computer. Simply keeping on top of what I've said to whom and when would turn into a full-time job and I'd need my own secretary.

A single scheme update (the basic unit of my work) can involve conversations and data exchange between a couple of dozen people, in the extreme case.

And computers aren't crutches in MY corporate life - they're the tools with which we provide information to the driver at the roadside (and back again), 24 hours a day, 365 days a year - that's what we do.
