It seems to do most of what's really needed to be able to run GTD. However, I wonder if there is a way to run back up? Can I attach any type of notes or comments to the tasks? Can I sort them by date of entry? Any knowledge from GPE todo users welcomed!

I also need a desktop interface which would preferably be Outlook via the Tasks and Calendar items that are already being synced to the N900. I used to use a product called Life Balance from Llamagraphics that did this. Alas, it is not available for N900 yet, but I have sent them a request.

I was after a hierarchical todo list mainly (i.e. tasks can depend on other tasks, all of which can have due dates, priorities, flags, etc.), I actually couldn't find anything that looked portable from desktop Linux either.

You can assign a due date; you could use the due date to instead indicate the date you wrote it down instead. I don't recall how the built in n900 backup works but if it does the home directory then it should probably work. There are also ways to sync gpe-todo which I haven't tried yet. There is no field for notes.

You may be able to run the palm version of life balance using garnet vm.

I thought of that and I have been playing around with the Garnet VM, but my experience so far isn't so positive. It has quite a few issues under Maemo 5. Sometimes having no solution is better than having a solution that gives constant frustration.

I'm trying toodledo.com in a browser window, which is nice but I need an active internet connection, which is a little heavy on the battery. I'd love to have a better todo application!

Toodledo isn't a little to mobile unfriendly?
Anyway, it would be really better if there was a way to sync the toodledo data in order to use/edit it offline.

UI for something like this is a piece of cake with Qt (esp. upcoming Qt 4.6). Who won't somebody do it as a finger excercise?

The program would be worth more if it synced with something like rememberthemilk; you could probably steal the protocol code from "remember the milk plasmoid".

If you forget online sync, a simple app like this would be around one day of work without esoteric topics to tackle - just use QListWidget and stacked windows.
