Change it in your Language & Text preferences and Fantastical will reflect that change.

One of the big differences I find that leads to more interest in Google Calendar is the entering of tasks by being able to click on calendar dates and pop up times rather than having to click and tab through the date fields. Is this a possible future additon? You have a calendar right below the entry box. To be able to click on the date field and then on the calendar below for the date would be sweet! Keep up the great work.

I never thought that I would be interested in putting yet another front end/GUI on my calendars. But I cannot help myself; it is so aesthetically pleasing, and so promisingly implemented. I am trusting, however, that you are going to develop it beyond this point. My $15 as an investment.

I work for a small company that does work in NLP and your algorithms work great. Application is beautiful and works great. Keep up the great work.

I also use MenuCalendarClock and am very happy with it, but I like the UI of Fantastical a lot better. Much prettier to look at and way easier to read. The one thing stopping me from buying it right now is the icon. Is there a way to show both the weekday and month along with the date. Would be nice to see all of that next to the icon instead of some of it crammed into the tiny icon. I glance at the current day and date at regular intervals throughout the day while I am working and would miss this feature more than I would prefer a nicer UI. Thanks.

If you’re worried about having fine grain control over your GPU, use gfxCardStatus. Just be aware there are issues with the calendar and switching on that too. When you switch GPUs with this tool, Core Animation breaks and you have to relaunch apps.

I do love my battery life ;), is there a fix being planned for this?
