Datebook 4 or 5 (5 is better) from Pimlico.com or Agendus from Iambic.com are the highest rated, generally. I prefer Agendus, myself.

I'm using DateBk5 and I love it. My "To Do" list appears on my daily view, and the icons and fonts are fun to play with as well as being useful. I can color code tasks, or use icons to separate errands I need to run from jobs at home, for example. I had DateBk+ on my old Visor, so DateBk5 was really easy for me to learn.

Agendus handles the datebook, address book and ToDos. http://www.iambic.com/

You might want to try A5, a freeware weekly planner that interfaces well with the native Datebook and Agendus. The latest version is available at the author's website: rg.mirrorz.com. I've been using A5 for more than a year and find that it does almost all that Agendus does - minus the bulk. BTW, it looks great on the Zire 71.

Just having a play with A5 and there are some nice things about it. The thing that I don't like is that to create a ToDo style event with an alarm it puts it in your datebook as a full-day appointment. With Agendus if I create a ToDo with an alarm it puts it in my ToDo database. If this could be fixed then it would be a real goer.

I recommend Datebk5, it has far more features and capabilties the AG and its more flexible to work with, and being it works like the original Datebk, the learning curve is less and it integrates with the other apps on the handheld much more efficiently.
