Outliner/PIM roll call: Fall 2012

Oh, there’s also the mobile front which is also very much in flux, as I’m facing the reality that it’s time to ditch my beloved Blackberry. Over there I’m doing everything through the Dropbox app, which includes a text editor.

I bought an iPad a year ago which I’ve used mostly as a consumption device. As far as any PIM related uses going, I’ve played with PlainText and Nebulous Notes (now that there’s a free version) though it’s mostly to be able to review notes either while chilling on the couch or lying in bed. Admittedly, I’ve only edited them as a novelty.

I’d probably be doing more “work” with them if I had the same apps on an iPhone (plus I’d have TaskPaper, which can manage the TodoPaper files), though I’m torn there, as the Nokia Lumina 920 looks *really* nice, there’s just not many apps for Windows Phone. That said, since I’m keeping as much as possible in text files, I could probably get by with a Dropbox-synced text editor.
