You can set almost any application as the Backdrop app. I used to have
MoreInfo's At-A-Glance as mine and it did exactly this. Got tired of the
sterility though and switched back to Avi's. Your PIM should be able to be
set as the Backdrop application as well. Hope this helps.

meet any new situation by reorganizing- and a wonderful method it can be for
creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency,
and demoralization.
