SplashNotes seems to have succeeded where Natara Software had failed: they managed to transition from the Palm world into the smartphone world. I have evaluated them back six or so years ago for the Palm+Desktop option.
The standalone Windows desktop version is very similar to Natara Bonsai, as it is a 2-pane outliner that can be used as a 1-pane outliner. I liked the way it looked but went with Bonsai as the latter was more feature-rich.
It seems that for the Mac version they've turned it into a 2-pane outliner, but I may be wrong. But it does look a lot less sophisticated than the Win version.
So SplashNotes can be added to the list of single-pane outliners (once you close the Outline File List):

I find it good for notetaking and brainstorming on the go. Creating
notes, moving notes, color-coding notes and even stacking notes is
straightforward, exporting to a RTF file works fine.

Therefore I am still searching for an app that allows me to seamlessly
work on files both on the iPad and on my Windows PC. Maybe the
combination of Outline+ and Outlook 2010 will be the solution (until
Scrivener for iPad is available).
