Time Zone and location support in Appointments

As a mobile, cross country user, I often get totally confused while setting
up appointments in remote locations at their local times. I understand that
when I set up an appointment with someone at a different location, he will
see it at his local time. However, I wish to set the appointment at his local
time rather than my own.

One solution could be to include the time zone in the appointment dialog
box. When I set the time, I can specify whether the appointment is in my time
or remote time, and see the appropriate adjustments in my calendar.

As I travel across time zones quite often, I do change my laptop's time zone
to reflect the change.

Hi,

I am well aware of the feature. Its available on the calendar, but there are
two things that would be very useful for me:
1) Have it in the appointments, so I can set the appointment at the remote
time
2) Support more than 2 time zones while setting the appointment.

Are you aware of the dual time zone feature in outlook? you can set the
second zone for the other party's local time.
