As one other possible alternative, you could take a look at opengroupware (http://www.opengroupware.org/en/about/index.html) which has a group calendar. Now this could be overkill, but it's also a helluva lot of fun too. Do please look at the calendar module itself and the screenshots. Calendar: http://www.opengroupware.org/en/applications/calendar/index.html Screenshots: http://www.opengroupware.org/screens/index.html It does also play nicely with Palm. http://www.opengroupware.org/en/applications/palm/index.html I hope this is of some use to you.
