Help! I need an organizer app that installs a parent app on the PC

Pocket informant, Agenda fusion, and pocket outlook- all these organizers have the fatal flaw that they sync to Outlook on the partner PC. The problem with that is that Outlook is badly behaved on my computer, crashing frequently, causing slow shutdowns, etc. Does anyone know of an organizer application that installs its counterpart on the PC, so you can enter your task lists and appointments on the PC, and then sync them to the AXIM, without getting OUTLOOK involved?
I used to have a sharp PDA that came with desktop software made by Daytime Organizer. It synced beautifully and worked like a dream, and only cost $200. I'd still be using it today but the PDA was too big and heavy. The daytimer software was much slicker and more functional than OUTLOOK, but daytimer stopped writing it - it's not available for the AXIM.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Personally I agree w/you. I don't want to sync w/outlook, I want a different solution. I would like to sync w/Act! sales software. I have some suggestions depending on what field you're in or what you're trying to do. These solutions will help if you're in sales, if not, look at them anyways and at least gather info:

Star Contact Pro

Pocket Sales Mgr

On Schedule

TransAct (works w/Act!)

That's all I have for now. I think there's no perfect solution, but maybe these will help. Let me know what you think.

It is not the PIM that syncs with Outlook. It is the dreaded MS ActiveSync.
