If you’re a Google Apps customer and you’re in need of your calendar offline, you’re in luck! Just today Google began releasing offline calendar support, a move that will make their tools more attractive to business users.

The calendar has a lot of attractive features, such as support for Gears and the ability to check your appointments despite your current connection. Though, know that you’ll only be able to check up on your daily agenda using the offline version, not create new entries.

If you’re a non-Google Apps customer and you’re looking to check out this feature before you buy it, Lifehacker has had some hands-on time with the synchronization software and given some impressions.

 I would love to see a review of all [many of] the calendar apps out there, similar to the AV roundup. It's something I've been interested in for a long time, but have not plunged into because I don't want to spend 3 months experimenting.

 

On the other hand, please feel free to contact me if you'd like me to write the article for you.
