Well, Pimlical is going to handle iCalendar files natively in the very near
future, so it will be able to handle google calendar files (I already have
my in-house version of Pimlical (for windows) importing my google calendar
files into my own calendar where they can be viewed separately or seamlessly
merged with my personal and other calendars from DateBk and it shouldn't be
too much longer before I get that posted.

As for a native version on the Pre - I have submitted now at least a dozen
requests to Palm to get advance technical information on the Pre, but never
heard a peep out of them - no response, nada.

I'm disappointed that they don't seem to think there is any value in at
least TALKING to Palm developers who helped make their device a success in
the marketplace. Given that we have to all start over again with a system
that bears no resemblance whatsoever to prior Palm devices, why does Palm
think that given today's equation:

Blackberry devices: 35 million
iPhone: 25 million
Pre: 0

That developers are going to be flocking to the Pre....  ??
