I am still running Now Contact and had hoped to upgrade to Now X when
it was complete.

I don't care about a calendar but need a contact manager that allows
placing a photo, the usual contact info and will print letters and
labels fro the list.

Apple's address book/contacts just doesn't cut it, bento does not
allow printing (very strange), and i have not found an alternative
yet.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have looked at Daylite and it seems to be overkill and bit too
cluttered.

All I need is a contact manager that prints letters and labels and
shows me the information on each person.

I just downloaded and tried Daylite once again and it is simply too
cumbersome.

1. if you are going to have a photo of the person, how about making it
large enough to actually see the photo.

2. ALL the contact info should be entered and available to view on one
screen.

3. Way too busy an interface.

Thanks for the suggestion but I want the simplicity in layout, a large
photo of the person in the contact and the features that were
available 10 years ago that no other software has done since.

Most users that contact me about Daylite and mention how 'cumbersome'
a product it is have tried to learn the entire application all at
once. As someone that has been using Daylite myself for 6 years, I
still only use (and need) roughly 60% of the application.

Like any word processing application, most users use a very limited
portion of the functionality that is available.

Try using what you need.

BTW, what features are you referring to when you say "features that


were available 10 years ago that no other software has done since."
