Filemaker Introduces Bento Personal Database for Mac
Filemaker has introduced a new personal database application for Mac OS X called Bento.
Bento is described as being designed exclusively for Mac OS X Leopard and takes advantage of many Leopard-specific features, such as live linking to iCal, Core Animation, Advanced Find, Time Machine Backups and Multimedia features.
A free preview download is available. Filemaker, Inc. is a subsidiary of Apple and publishes FileMaker Pro for Windows and Mac OS X. Macworld provides a brief first look at Bento. Bento is expected to be released at Macworld San Francisco 2008 for $49 for a single license.

looks sweet, which isn't surprising.
i'll try it just for the sake of trying it. wonder if it'll be standalone software or become bundled in with FileMaker

The missing component of iWork maybe?

It would be cool to have a database tool with iWork. I would think it would not be marketed from FileMaker tho....

If it can sync events with Google Calendars, I'm sold.
Or, alternately, I could ask if someone knows how to enable two-way synching with iCal and Google Cal, that would be even better.

Before I even try it, I'm curious as to pricing. No mention of that. Why should I try a pre-release preview if I don't know if I would want to pay for it down the line. If it is $25-70 and really useful, maybe. If it is $100+ or so, don't think it's worth it.
