Palm to Omnifocus & Yojimbo

I have been changing my system away from Palm Desktop and palm  
applications because I still feel the Palm OS platform is dying.

First step was to move calendars out into iCal. That took a couple of  
months as I fine tuned all my calendars but is now working fairly  
well, at least as well as before with Palm Desktop. Then I moved all  
my Palm memos out to a Yojimbo database.

I installed missing synch to get the calendar and memos to synch with  
the treo. Some issues getting that to work consistently, there are  
known errors but so far it's working ok.

Then I started implementing GTD more fully on my treo. I have been  
using LifeBalance for my GTD package but got frustrated with the  
difficulty in reviewing projects, esp. someday maybe projects and the  
problems trying to tune the actions to get them to show up when I  
thought they should. I found myself playing in LB rather than actually  
getting anythign done.

I started looking at Omnifocus because the desktop version is much  
more robust compared to LifeBalance and it seemed it was easier to  
review on-hold projects. I was able to port all my LB data over to it  
and within a couple of hours got it working very well.  I now synch it  
to iCal and then to the treo. SO far with about a month of time with  
it its working fairly well.

Current system is GTD in Omnifocus and most work done on my mac  
desktop. Synch OF to iCal and then synch to Treo.

I am now positioned to port to an iPhone easily which is where I think  
I will be moving after the treo.

Anyway if anyone has specific questions about this option I'd be glad  
to explain what I ran into and how I fixed it.
