From what little I know about the VIP, I believe it has a GEM interface.
There is also Masterplan as well and one of the magazines recently covered
Spreadsheets fairly completely, RESET I think it was.
I think Phasar has the GEM interface as well. Other spreadsheets I have
heard about are 
Logistix
Swiftcalc
EZ Calc

The Switcalc and EZ Calc I believe has GEM interfacing as well. Can't 
remember if Logistix has it as well, my recall thinks it doesn't. Mind you
I have only tried these out in stores and never used any of them in depth. 

I tend to use the PD one Sheet, currently up to 1.6 I believe. 
Hope these other names help you.
