Have you tried cloudList? It's free and we've got a web app as well: cloudlist.quarterstaf.com
While I understand, you're probably unlikely to make the switch but it would be nice to get some feedback on what you think of our app. =)

[edit] try downloading from the market. maybe our website apk is out of date.

Interesting idea! Now my boyfriend won't need to keep calling me from the grocery store to ask "what else do I need to buy?" j/k. I'll give it a whirl.

UPDATE: Bummer. Downloaded but it gave me an error message that it couldn't install onto my phone. I've got Android 1.5. Is that why?

Hmm 1.5 shouldn't be a reason why it failed since you can download it. Can you email me at andrew at quarterstaf dot com ? I'll try to fix this for you asap. You're using an Eris?

Thanks for all the info on these apps John! These types of things are just what I have been looking for for my N1. I'm using the AudioManager app now too. I'm hoping that Google updates their calender app so we can see and update tasks from a separate widget as well.

Have you checked out the RTM extension in the chrome browser?

You gotta give gtasks more of a shot John! It integrates with your google calendar, and you can use it on your phone to add tasks, or from your desktop. I do wish you could change the widget instead of just the yellow color, but hopefully it will become more fully featured as time goes by.

Then again, my list only has 1 thing on it, and it's not even that important, haha. I suppose if I was really busy I might need to add to it via twitter or gmail or whatever.

I agree with Astrid...lots going on, and for a simple "task," it should be simple to add. (But that's why I like gtasks. Add the item, a date if you'd like, and done.)

I'm surprized Google hasn't done more to make Tasks useful across multiple devices/platforms. Why isn't there an official Google widget for this? Seems like I should be able to choose "Tasks View" or something when adding a new calendar widget, but the Google Calendar on Android has no tasks support other than viewing. I hope it's coming soon.

gTasks seems O.K., but yeah... I have to admit the yellow sticky isn't doing it for me. :0)

On Page 2: "Compare this to what I consider to be RTM’s leading competitor, the free Google app, Astrid."

John, can you tell me where you've read that Astrid is from Google??? Or am I reading your article the wrong way b/c I swear that the creator of Astrid is some guy in university doing computer science....

I'm not finding any info on him, but nothing indicating that Google owns it, either. I'm not sure why I was certain they bought it. Thank you fer getting me to check on that.

Post updated to remove references to Astrid as belonging to Google. My bad.

Astrid isn't a Google Product.
