Product Description
Want a little calendar in your Kindle? Simple, formatted so you can really use it? Here it is. Not elaborate, long, or clunky, just clear, efficient and complete. -- Enter and keep freeform notes or ToDos day by day or month by month.. -- One simple notes journal for the current week -- not trying to fake an hourly planner, but 3 notes per day to use as you prefer. -- Short, very, very compact and easiest to use -- A 12 Monthly calendar set 10/08 through 9/09 that shows what you need - the day of a particular date. You can enter one note against each month, too, or 3 for each quarter. -- A full 3 year calendar view --2007 through 2009 ..look ahead or look back -- Handy jumplinks all through -- just click to go see what you want without a lot of paging ... includes help screen for quick reference. No, this will not completely replace your Outlook Agenda, ring alarms, or automatically feed your goldfish. the current Kindle is not yet open to programming like that. It does use (and explains) the Kindle notes capability to its fullest. Yes, you can see all notes at once, search among them, or back them up to your PC. ----- Update 10-03-08 : Sure, why not? We added online calendar access for Google calendar and Y! calendar ..AND handy instant GMAIL, YAHOO, and COMCAST email links, with full help - and how to get your AOL or MSN email. Plus .. outbound SMS links for emergencies. Oh, yes, federal and U.S. holidays, too. Yes, you can do all this from your Kindle. Not bad for the price of one Latte, is it? Existing users - just delete and re-download to get this free update

This isn't the cheapest calendar for your Kindle, but it IS the one done right. Everything you can do on a calendar for the Kindle is all here. --You get a handy daily notepad - which is a place to use for any kind of notes, including AM, PM, and evening appointments, or your daily journal. Or just use it to keep track of the e-books you've read or want to read.
--Then, you get 12 monthly calendars, efficiently formatted, for each of the next 12 months. You can insert a note or notes list under each month, if you choose.
--Then you also get a 3 year calendar 2007 through 2009 - again with space for notes.

Added 10/3/08: The latest 10/03/08 update, online now, though it's description still isn't, added some over-the-top extras: holidays; access to Yahoo and Gmail online calendars using Kindle's browser; instant direct access to your Comcast, Gmail, and Yahoo email; AOL and MSN mail forwarding; and SMS outbound messaging and driving directions -- all from this little calendar.

Download the free sample, if you like.. Notice there are no cute titles or embedded pictures; nothing you have to page past, or that isn't needed for instant functionality. (Because Amazon's sample is limited to the first 2 pages, all you'll sample is part of daily journal; not the monthly, not the yearly calendars, and not the very complete help pages on Kindle notes .. and the jumplinks to the sections and detailed appendix don't work as they do in the full version. but hey, it's free)

Better yet, just buy the whole thing. If you decide you don't like it, or really prefer to buy a sailboat, Amazon lets you return it any time within 7 days (in the store click kindle support, then on the right, return item). And if you do like it but have a suggested improvement, do a little review here and we may add it; then you can do a free re-download



enjoy your kindling!

1 out of 5 stars Only one weeks worth of pages.???   December 12, 2008

Sorry Don, but what good is a calendar that only lets me input stuff for just this week. I looked at the sample and figured there were no dates because that first page was a sample page. I really like the format of the page, (one page per week would be better). I need to be able to input data for weeks in the future. I would also suggest that you put the month calendars less crowded and bigger. I did like your other book on how to use my kindle.
