I use OmniFocus, in spite of their bad UI and general priceyness. * Things: has a lot of things going for it, but syncing is terrible. You can't directly sync from iPhone to iPad for example without having a copy of Things.app on Mac on your local LAN. If you're only using one device, I guess this doesn't matter, but it's a big deal for me. I seriously tried to switch to Things, since it was so much easier than OF, but the syncing support sent me back within a week. * RTM: No projects support (tasks inside tasks). This is a dealbreaker for me, since I like to organize my tasks into groups. RTM just seems really lightweight to me for organizing my whole life. * ToodleDo - sync is a problem again. It syncs to RTM, but you have the same projects problem. It syncs over Bonjour/WiFi, but you have the same Things problem. OF's UI is terrible, but it is powerful and can basically be configured to work however you want. I wish there was a more painless way to do start/end dates for tasks like Things, and I wish they had a native iPad client. And I wish they moved towards tags and away from tree hierarchies. But overall, not bad.

ToodleDo has tasks inside tasks, lists, etc. You have to pay $14/year. In my use over 3G and WiFi, the cloud sync is fantastic, supporting complex task types, dates, and nestings.

Not that it helps anyone today, but Cultured Code (author of Things) has "Cloud Sync" at the top of their list right now: http://culturedcode.com/status/ http://culturedcode.com/status/

  What a great news, thank you. I've been waiting for this feature for a long time and Things is really great, in terms of UI and features and GTD experience, more user-friendly than remember the milk IMO.

    Don't get your hopes up; it seems that it's been on their list for a year and a half, and it's been on top for months now: http://getsatisfaction.com/culturedcode/topics/sync_mac_things_with_iphone_things_via_mobileme http://getsatisfaction.com/culturedcode/topics/sync_mac_thin...
