Android Calendar alternatives?

[Simon]

I've just been playing with a friend's SE X10, and it seems the only available calendar application is Google Calendar.  I really don't want Google reading all of my appointments, and as this is an essential tool for me, it puts a big negative on Android phones for me.  Is there an alternative calendar application on the HTC Desire, such as HTC's own Calendar?

[Glenn]

There are plenty of calendars available from the Marketplace, Simon, but I haven't tried any.

[Glenn]

HTC Sense also has one installed on the phone.

[Simon]

I know the HTC HD2 has it's own one, but I wasn't sure if the Android version did.

I don't think I want the Rover K series engine but the VW 1.8L turbo would do fine

[Glenn]

The Vtec is a good fit 

[Steve]

Im too lazy a driver for a Vtec,I like a bit of torque low down.However the VW 1.8T can do 0-60 in about 3 secs which is a trifle too quick.

[Glenn]

It only weighs around 700 - 800kg inc driver

I've always fancied clearing out the garage and doing something similar in the winter. I recall taking my escort mk1 engine out without a hoist,no wonder my back gives me grief sometimes.

[Glenn]

I had a Fisher Fury for a couple of years

[Simon]

Well, I shan't be buying one.  You can do bugger all without it asking you to sign into Google.  I want phone that isn't controlled by a higher power. 

[Rik]

Most run from batteries, Simon.

[Glenn]

So no Android or iPhone then

[Simon]

[Rik]

We're not picking on you, Simon, honest.

[Glenn]

The only time I signed into Google, was when I first switched the phone on. No accounts that I can see, sync to them either, what runs in the background could be a different matter.

Unlike Kelsey Grammar, Google are watching.
