Hi Eleanor The diary or calendar on these phones is great, I use it all the time. When you enter the calendar, you are confronted with today's date. Just enter on it, then go to the menu to New, and start creating your appointment by completing each line like subject and location. Then there are fields with start date, end date, alarm time, alarm on or off, repeat event, etc. It's pretty self-explanatory once you get used to it, but I think it's very good with TALKS. As for the notes, I can't help you with colours and display as I have no sight, but, as Steve says, the facility to send is there in case you get them elsewhere and want to pass them on. Have fun playing, you can't do anything really awful by trying.

I am also a little confused about the notepad on my N95 because I can write a note on it and there is an option to send as text message. Why not write the text message in the first place I ask myself. Only thing is while I am writing the note, it is a nice yellow screen but once I transfer to text message it goes back to the white screen. I just never use these office facilities because I am stupid but I would like to learn so hopefully some of you are using these and can educate me.
