I've been playing with the different calendar options:

Mcalendar, beautiful interface, but lacking in a standard calendar view! Also lacks the ability to see details saved within an event.

Pimlico Dates, Not very pretty, not very friendly. (maybe I didn't understand it)

GPE Calender, Functional, you can view event details (but you have to go to edit) and when used with Erminig you have the ability to sync to google. Not very pretty though, and it would be nice to start the week with a Sunday rather than Monday. It would also be great if the Desktop applet was transparent.

Has anyone found something that looks like Mcalender, and works like GPE? I would kill for that app!
