Is there any Mac equivalent to Ultra Recall. I have a student who uses a Mac as his computer and has a need for an exemplary PIM like UR. Does anyone know of a Mac product that has many or all of the information management characteristics of UR?

Many thanks

I'm not a Mac user, but from what I've seen on other forums (e.g. Outlinesoftware.com), the main Mac programs which resemble UR are Devonthink, Yojimbo, and perhaps Together (formerly Keep It Together).

You might also have a look at the comparative review here: http://www.viewfromthedock.com/2008/05/02/mac-pim-review-part-i/

Another possibility is the Evernote beta, which supports Mac.

I don't know whether any of these programs have scheduling capacity, as UR does, in case that's important to your student.

Thanks for the ideas. We will explore them. I like the Evernote one. I use it myself and just realized that it also is Mac compatible. It would do most of the work that needs to be done, and it is free!
