Best mobile / cell phone for GTD?
Matt Wynne | Oct 12 2006
Hi all, I'm going to upgrade my trusty nokia 6230i this weekend as I'm out of contract. I'm looking for recomendations for a good phone that I can use the calendar and tasks management during the day to sync with kGTD via iCal at home. At the moment I don't really use either feature in the phone as the screen is too small and fiddly, and the tasks management is just poor. Instead I 'sync' to moleskin day-planner calendar and index cards over breakfast. Any good experiences with mobile phones and GTD? I've allways had nokia phones: I like my UI quick, simple and clutter-free, but I am willing to switch brands if the recommendation is strong... I had considered a treo... any thoughts? thanks all, 4 Comments

I'm holding out for the T-Mobile Dash coming next Wednesday. I've been a Blackberry user for a while now, but have always missed the camera!!. I think that as an OS X user, you might have to stay away from Blackberry and WM devices if you want a perfect sync. I'm not sure if it is all Mark/Space products, but the tickbox changes don't sync over to kGTD well with their Palm version of the sync software. On the PalmOS version of Missing Sync, tickboxes that have been ticked on the handheld sync properly to iCal, but kGTD can't pick those changes up. When kGTD is synced with iCal any changes made to iCal tasks on the handheld are reset by kGTD. I don't know if this is also the case for their WM and/or Blackberry software, although I'm sure that someone on the forum should be able to answer that. All said and done it really isn't too much of a chore to simply untick & retick the boxes in iCal before I sync (I use PalmOS), but it is an irritation. For a flawless sync with kGTD I'd look for a handheld natively compatible with iSync. » POSTED IN:
