I don’t think this matches your requirements, but I’ll throw it out there anyway.
There’s Dipity: http://www.dipity.com/

Many thanks for all the suggestions. Some of these timelining and mindmapping applications are not cheap! I guess they’re targeting the corporate buyer.
In the meantime I also came across a lowbrow solution for presenting simple timelines in SmartDraw: http://www.smartdraw.com/product/features/#/product/features/Timeline-Examples (which I already have).
The cost-conscious solution might be to separate the two tasks, i.e. creating an all-inclusive complex table in one software, and creating a simplified timeline of it in another.

How about Mindsystems Amode V2 http://www.mindsystems.com.au/products/amode/index.php
It has a chart view that works in concert with other views.

You might want to look at Inspiration ( http://www.inspiration.com ). It is an outliner and diagram creator and you can create an outline and then automatically change it into a diagram and vice versa. (IF the diagram isn’t too complex with multiple links between multiple nodes.)
It was designed for high school students. I’ve used it to create flow charts with side branches.

There are a lot of mindmappers out there, including heavy hitters like MindManager and iMindMap.
Alex, what makes MindView stand out for you?
Thanks
