Electronic rolodex software

Does anybody know of good rolodex software out there? Somebody has asked me for some recommendations and I am absolutely clueless. I think our address book software is adequate, but I would like to see some examples of pure rolodex-type software to compare.

The software that is used with Palm devices, Palm OS is something I've used for quite some time. Great stuff. It's a free download and can function as a stand alone data base on a computer. You don't need a Palm to use the software. Here's a link.

Yep, that's another good option, one that I suggested. However, the problem in this case is that it isn't multiuser, so the data stored on one PC wouldn't be available to somebody working on another PC.

I honestly don't think that multiuser, effective, and cost-efficient rolodex software exists. But on the off chance that it does exist and I haven't been able to find it, I thought I would post here.

Would a web based solution work for you? I didn't really do much research on it, but it may be worth checking out. It's not free, it's $4 a month.

You may want to give this a look. A little more than just a rolodex but has potential.
