Access Outlook data without booting

How many times have you quickly wanted a phone number from Outlook but squirmed when you realized your laptop was turned off? FirstWare assistant from the BIOS maker Phoenix solves the problem by allowing you to access all your Outlook data immediately without booting simply by holding down the keyboard ‘F’ key.  The program works by monitoring the key even when the PC is turned off. When pressed, it accesses a copy of your Outlook data made when your PC was last booted. There is tiny battery drain penalty as well as extra disk space taken to store a duplicate copy of your data.  That’s a small price to pay to convert your laptop into a PDA.
