So, I'm about to go computer geek.
Daylight savings time has absolutely messed up my calendar! I sync my calendar with a pocket pc. At work we use Microsoft Outlook 2007. At home I have 2003. On my pocket pc I have pocket Outlook... this means three computers are interacting.... Microsoft very very very poorly coded the Outlook calendar and in the newer versions have not corrected their mistakes in the system.
So there's a patch. But the patch won't install on my computer.
I've lost additional hair this morning. I'm not even kidding. I have events that are spanning multiple days. I have events that are happening an hour earlier than they're supposed to be. I've rebooted and rebooted and rebooted. I'm usually a very patient person, but it's been over an hour of NOTHING accomplished.
I'm practicing deep breathing exercises and praying. I think I might listen to music while I decompress and try again.

I use Lightning in Conjunction with Mozilla Thunderbird and Google Calendar.
Lightning to take Outlook Event Invites and add them to a calendar, Thunderbird to have the calendar in my email client, and Google Calendar to centralize all the calendar events onto a server.
I don't have a PDA, but because Google Calendar allows exporting to iCal, I'm sure you could even transfer the calendar from google calendar down to your PDA.
The best part about it is the entire thing is pretty much transparent. It hasn't hiccuped yet!
