If System-Manager compliancy isn't necessary, ACT! is clearly an excellent choice. If you are willing to give up features for seamless integration with HP's built-in applications, then Pocket Sales Force provides an alternative (see sidebar page 8). If you don't need to keep track of information beyond name, phone number and address, and keeping track of meetings and calls to clients is not important, then the HP 95LX's built-in PHONE and APPT are probably sufficient.
