Great. The universe is now complete. We have ONE MORE Outlook add-in! That's exactly what ran through my mind last week when I stumbled upon (not literally, but I just LOVE www.StumbleUpon.com) Xobni. (BTW, that's "inbox' spelled backwards and that makes this post title officially clever.)
Xobni is simply the slickest Outlook add-in I have ever seen.

A start-up Connecticut company called Datto has released a hardware/service combo pack that's, to the best on my knowledge, a first.

CCH reps are selling TaxScripts® TaxPro, an electronic process to obtain IRS transcripts. The application enables tax professionals to quickly create and submit Disclosure Authorizations and IRS transcript requests. Any tax practitioner who has filed at least five electronic tax returns in the past year may use this new service.
TaxScripts TaxPro users input personal profile data just once. Subsequently they simply follow on-screen prompts to create Disclosure Authorizations and transcript requests with details like the types of information sought and target tax years. They then upload the request to the IRS which automatically pushes the requested data back to them.
This is very slick stuff -- I guarantee you’ll be impressed. I was so excited I almost wished I had an current client tax problem for which I needed a transcript! I can’t wait!!!
Here’s a nice demo -- a bit longish, but very informative.
