I've been looking for a similar solution.
It looks like Meeting Maker might be what we're looking for. The new version
got a decent review in a recent trade magazine, Mobile Computing, I think.
Here's the product info link:

Tim
our firm used Meeting Maker for many years in a cross-platform environment.
I like it better than Outlook's calendar functions.
Cheers

Good morning,
One of my end users asked me yesterday if I have any
suggestions for a shared calendar program. There are two stiff
requirements. First it has to support both Mac and Windows clients
and second it can not be server based. Something that runs on one
client which that client shares is what she needs.
Thank you in advance for any advice.

Well Meeting Maker almost meets thse requirements, except it needs a 'server'.
The server, though, just has to be a system connected to the network, and
nothing special, hardware-wise.
A system with only a few clients could be run on a regular workstation no
problem; we have people here on campus running a departmental server on the
secretary's regular system. It's a very nice and stable calendar program.
We were running it on an old 486 for years with about 25-30 clients on it with
no problems...I ususally forgot it was even there.
