Opinions Chessbase Light

I am wondering what opinions people have of Chessbase Light 2007 ?

I've been looking at the demo of Chessbase Light 2007, and for my purposes (casual player) it looks pretty good - and at a reasonable price too. I notice it can't annotate a game in the same way Fritz can though (I have Fritz 8).

It begs the question - what would Chessbase (or Chess Assistant) give me over the features built into Fritz ? I'm guessing it's the ease of using multiple databases at once.

Cheers for the link - answered a lot of my questions.

I'm still debating if the DB functions in Fritz are "good enough" for me.

I'm still using ChessBase Lite (Premium Edition). I think the software will have all the functions you need to manage a database of games. However, I have found that the database I have is quite limited (I imported the Fritz 10 database and have added to it with TWIC). For this reason I am thinking about upgrading to a full version of CB.

In an ideal world, I would love an app that could automatically sync a PGN file to a note in Palm Desktop - then I could carry the games I am thinking about around in Chess Tiger on my palm...
