Journler or iGTD?

I have been looking at those 2 apps, both are very interesting but I can't really make up my mind which I should use as my GTD app.

All inputs are helpful.

Thanks.

I use Devon Think with GTD, but it is not the core of the system (that role belongs to kGTD). Rather, it is my trusted filing system. I am working my way through 30 years of paper files with a scanner; and, even though I'm only 25% done, am already reaping unexpected rewards. I knew I would get back some floor space in the home office and I knew I'd find things quicker, but I had no idea how much material I could just toss and how many nascent projects have slipped off the radar over the years.

DT Pro seems to be a great software for sure but with a steep learning curve. I don't have enough filing to do for such a platform.
iGTD seems very tasks focused and offer limited (none?) filing possibilities.
Omnifocus, for what I could see so far (including the latest video demo) looks tasks focused too and is actually a bit disappointing (although I must be the only one in that camp...).
I am a GTD adopter ( 2 years now) and I hoped to find 1 system which could do the 'tasking' and the filing altogether. After much thinking and testing, I am opting for Journler.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
