Sorry to be adding another thought so late in proceedings...
I work across a couple of time zones, and it would be nice ***in terms of the 
widgets***  if when entering or viewing a time/date I can set which time zone 
applies to that date.  (eg I will be in one time zone, phone a client in a 
different time zone and make an appointment to see them.  I want to enter that 
appointment in terms of their time zone, not the local one)

Thanks,
Hugh
