Re: Palm to Omnifocus & Yojimbo

Hi, 

Id love to get more info ­ ive been poking around in/omni focus as well. I
like it ­ but since im so accustomed to using tasks on my palm (with
entourage Œ04), am worried I just wont get that right. I, too, may be going
iphone in next 3 months ­ not sure. I¹m still thinking about the Pre -

What sync issues did you run into ­ and, do you happen to use entourage?
