Now I'm on a nwew iphone and I just don't understand why listpro is not already ported to the iphone- LISTPRO would blow away the competition as well as probably land itself in the top 25 or top 10 apple store products...

I am converting to the iPhone at the end of January. I additionally, import my Collectorz book, music and DVD lists. I do all my editing on the PC and would very much like the Listpro for the iPhone. I also use and will buy eWallet for iPhone when I make the change. I have enjoyed using both programs for years. I use Listpro on a iPAQ as one of my most used programs.

Since moving to the iPhone, this is the one application I truly miss from my WM Treo. For me, I just want access to my lists as reminders to make sure something vital doesn't fall through the cracks. Given the other applications available, it seems that ListPro would quickly find a prominent place as a leading application on iTunes. You have been extended your release date several times and apparently have no application release on the horizon. Therefore, I will regretfully find an interim solution while I anxiously await your product. By the way, during recent meeting, our company sent out a general broadcast message and all 10 people checked their phones - all were iPhones.

ListPro is flexible and general, and so useful for much much more than just grocery lists and to-do lists. If you put this app onto the iPhone, even if just a reader, it would be a killer app. What makes ListPro great is that it is a GENERALIZED PIM for any kind of information... Toodledo is just a to-do list. I see no general purpose Personal Information Managers for iPhone out there... this is a tremendous opportunity for IlliumSoft... you guys should be all over this!

The main uses I have had for ListPro are: Tracking expenses when away on business. Hierarchical Outlining (similar to mind mapping projects). Packing lists for Travel. Shopping lists. Christmas gift lists. Now while I could find different tools that covered each of the above with different levels of success, ListPro is the one application that does all these and does it well. For tracking expenses or hierarchical outlining, a reader is of no use, it needs to be a fully editable application that I can use on the go. The other 3 for the most part would suffice in a reader format but the ability to tweak these when I am out and about is very handy indeed, especially when you get a moment of inspiration for someone's Christmas gift. I would be thrilled if a full version makes it to the iPod Touch / iPhone and strongly petition you to create such a tool; my fear is that a reader version would be limited and not as greatly received as the full version so might not be the best way to gauge interest.

I use both MacBook and Windows Laptops and will be really pleased to see List Pro released in both reader and full versions for my newly acquired Ipod Touch. I have already bought e-Wallet and am eagerly awaiting a Mac desktop synch version but will be happy with Windows for now. Now I just need a good Note organiser.

Like others, I think the ability at least to use checkboxes is a must even for the Reader. As you (hopefully) move forward with other versions of Listpro for the iPhone, I hope you will consider the same syncing solution you have adopted for eWallet. I think its the perfect solution, as syncing with "the cloud" is exceptionally unappealing to me. Finally, have you considered a solution that sits in between what might be a pure Reader (no manipulation on the iPhone) and a full-featured version of Listpro?

I am an avid PC and Pocket PC user, and have been closely watching the iPhone/Touch market, since I typically upgrade when new devices come out, but only when it makes sense functionally to do so. I've decided to go with a Touch now exactly becuase of the fact that many great PPC apps or their equivalent have been releaed for the Touch. (That is your motivation). Of course eWallet will be top on my list to get when my unit arrives, and am chomping at the bit for ListPro as well. Of course if you think about it, something a little more than just a reader would be necessary - at least checkboxes, sorting and filtering. Keep up the good work. I look forward to another great product release. Anthony Just wanted to chime in with my $0.02 worth.

I never wanted to use my palm for full-featured GTD, weekly review, list-making etc. I always used the desktop version for that. I just wanted an ability to look up stuff while out. and the Reader would be wonderful for that. I am switching from my Blackbertty to an Iphone and I can't wait until ListPro for Iphone is released. I love my ListPro and I will love it even more when I can use it on my iPhone. I agree with the Reader concept (with checkbox support).

I'm looking for a good GTD app for my iPhone since I just got one. My boss raves about ToDo and how it does what he wants but I never asked if he tried ToodleDo's app. I need a GTD that has web sync capabilities and that allows me to manage many individual projects, ie work, personal, web stuff, etc... I'm curious as to what you think. Kevin,
