I chose a BOSS 8000 over a Wizard. The BOSS is optimized to be
an electronic DayTimer (TM). It fits in my shirt pocket.
The Wizard does not. That makes all the difference in the world.
The BOSS has a qwerty key layout. The Wizard is alphabetic which
is the worst of all worlds for a key layout.

The current top of the line BOSS has the same ability as the Wizard
if you are looking for something more than a Daytimer.
