Re: [orca-list] seeking 2 Applications with an accessible graphical interface

Hi,

I think both your problems can be solved with Thunderbird if you use it.
It has a calendar plugin which you can use as a reminder application.
And contact facility of thunderbird works very well, you can even
integrate it with Google etc.
