Also, if you use an online solution such as sbcyahoo for sincing and backup, mac users are out of luck. I even considered buying a new mac instead of a new PC, but opted out due to my heavy need for Outlook support and on-line calendaring for my staff. It is clear that Jobs is going for the consumer/creative types and not for task-oriented/outlook reliant professionals. Too bad. I want an iphone and a reason to dump Sprint yesterday. ical does nothing for us wintel users. Also, if you use an online solution such as sbcyahoo for sincing and backup, mac users are out of luck.

Until then, it's no big deal. If you use some kind of IMAP email it's simple to create folders to manage your to dos. You can do the same thing for notes, too. Try it. It's simple and it works. You can even incorporate repeating to dos, by creating repeating events in iCal with email reminders. I agree that the launch of Leopard could coincide with the addition of to do lists on the iPhone.

Rather than try to shoehorn something in that worked with the iPhone (already running a subset of Leopard) and the current Tiger on the Mac desktop, I have a strong suspicion that the iPhone will suddenly get a robust to-do/calendar/reminder system on the day that Leopard is released. (Assuming you upgrade your Mac, of course.) I don't know what they're planning for the Windows side of things, but expect a new version of iTunes to come out right about then, too, maybe with the new calendaring protocols tweaked to play nice with Outlook.

There's plenty of 3rd party stuff like Ta-Da and Toodledo though. Interesting — what a weird oversight by Apple.
