I don't quite get the appeal of a planner, or how you're supposed to use one.

I assume you don't carry one around with you, so how do you make or discuss plans when not home?

Are they primarily just an aid to retention via that effect where pen and paper helps people remember things, and the really "planner" is your brain?

Or do people do most of their thinking and planning at home, so they don't really need portability?

Seems like it would be good for someone with a family who has lots of appointments that are made and planned at home.

It also seems like it could be really good for appearances sake, if you meet with a lot of nontechnical clients who might feel more comfortable seeing you with paper, so they know you're actually working.
