I have DVC Planner. It works well and now saves your vacations. Only thing is there is a problem if you want to stay over New Years Eve and Depart New Years Day. It will not currently allow you to do this even though all the points would actually be in the same Year. I reported this in the user feedback area, don't know when they will fix it.

If you check, I think you'll find that you can depart on Jan 1, 2011.

One easy way to do that is on the date wheel, move the year to say 2013 and release then watch as it snaps back to Jan 1, 2011.

Mine always snaps back to Dec 31, 2010. I checked itunes and there is no update for it, so I wonder why it works for you and not me?

Can you try BLT Dec 27, 2010 to Jan 1, 2011?

I have an Iphone and there are 2 DVC apps available right now. DVC points and DVC planner. Both are great and I think they were either free or 99 cents. Check them out!!

What I found is that DVC Planner allows 1/1/2011 as a check-out date, DVC Points does not.

Actually the new app eTicket WDW by the the disboard.com team is available starting today and has a dvc calculator built in along with an iphone optimized version of the forums, an itinerary planner, and gps navigation of the parks. Quite a full featured app and they are planning on adding to it I believe.

I have all three. They all have the same failing - no calendar. You have to know the dates and days of the week ahead of time. For instance, if you want to go the second weekend in May you can't look at a calendar and see when it is. You have to know them and then input the dates.

My personal favorite is D-Point. It is not the "slickest" but it gets the job done, and then lets you change key items like resort, dates, room type, etc. easily and gives an instant point tally.

DVC planner lets you save your trips and gives you advance warning of the dates you need to call, i.e. the 11 month, 7 month, etc. But it is a bit clunkier in the way it computes the points, and it is not as easy to change a single parameter and get a new point value.

DVC points is very similar to D-Point in terms of function. The main difference is you input a start and end date, with D-Point you enter a start date and number of days. Otherwise they are about the same.

It just depends on what you want to know. Just how many points for a stay? Then D-Point or DVC points. Need to know the advance dates to call, want to save the trip? Then DVC Planner is for you.

Of course, for under $3 you can have all three! As soon as one offers a calendar then you'll have a winner. Otherwise there is not enough difference to really pick a winner.

Good luck!
