SplashData, which recently acquired iambic, let us know today that it plans to update the latter's popular PIM app for the iPhone, Agendus, to version 2.0. According to the correspondence, the application will receive a major interface makeover and the addition of many new features. No other details about the upgrade were given. We expect to heare more from SplashData about Agendus 2.0 next month.

Now on version 1.2, Agenus, long available for other smartphone platforms, first found its way to the iPhone and iPod touch last summer. The edition for Apple's mobile devices ($4.99, available here), enhances and extends the built-in iPhone Contacts App while introducing its own comprehensive Task management function. It includes a Today View, a Task List View, a Compact and Expanded Contact Views, and features like Contact Linking, One Tap Dial / Email, quick item deletion, task categories, colors, grouping and filtering, over-the-air services such as integrated weather forecasts, and more.

Shortly after the release of Agendus 1.0, iambic updated the app to version 1.01, which introduced over thirty improvements, including the addition of full landscape support in all views and dialogs, iPhone OS 3.0 compatibility, and various new sorting, grouping and display options for both Contact and Task related views (such as priority indicator, due date, default categories, etc.). An added "services" preference panel allowed users to have the weather location automatically determined, as well as to specify a twitter client for the "share on twitter" functionality.

Last month, the developer rolled out an upgrade to Agendus 1.2. See a comprehensive list of new features and enhancements after the break.
