Try MS Groove. It supports offline working, synchronizes your data (and forms and stuff) when your connection is up, and stores local copies in an encryped 'vault'. ...But there's a catch: you need to build something for your geared Gmail and Groove to sync.

Symbian Introduces Open Source Release Plan 92

Posted by Soulskill on Saturday March 14, 2009 @09:21AM from the sooner-rather-than-later dept.

volume4 brings news that David Wood of the Symbian Foundation has made a post detailing their plans for a release schedule, with new versions due out every six months. We discussed Nokia's acquisition of Symbian for the purpose of open sourcing the popular mobile OS last year. Quoting: "There's a lot of activity underway, throughout the software development teams for all the different packages that make up the Symbian Platform. These packages are finding their way into platform releases. The plan is that there will be two platform releases each year. ... Symbian^2, which is based on S60 5.1, reaches a functionally complete state at the middle of this year, and should be hardened by the end of the year. This means that the first devices based on Symbian^2 could be reaching the market any time around the end of this year — depending on the integration plans, the level of customisation, and the design choices made by manufacturers. Symbian^3 follows on six months later — reaching a functionally complete state at the end of this year, and should be hardened by the middle of 2010."

Indeed, use it. Take a set of powerusers and a couple of dummies. Give them various assignments. 1) Track and trace their eye-movements (use GUI-students at universities) 2) Track and trace cursor-movements (google for ajax tools for visualizing in-browser-measurments) 3) Track and trace number of clicks 4) Track and trace users' routes to solutions 5) Track and trace time to complete their tasks 6) Take time to ask and hear what they have to say about it
