How to choose a planner

How do I select a handheld planner among all those available?

There are, indeed, many types and brands of planners that can help you schedule appointments, track action items, and manage contact information. The first step in choosing one is to evaluate your needs and style: Do you prefer a paper-based system or an electronic handheld organizer? Do you primarily need to manage a to-do list, or do you prefer the ability to take a lot of notes? How do you prefer to view your calendar: by day, week, or month? Whichever system you select, be sure to customize it.
