iPhones and Project Management

I have to say, I am loving my iPhone. I’m finding that it works well as a PDA for me. The Notes tool is fine for meeting notes, and I’m getting faster at my thumb typing, and I can easily use phpCollab or RememberTheMilk for my task and list management. At the end of a meeting, it’s one click to generate an email with my notes in it.

Meetings with whiteboard drawings can also have the whiteboard recorded with the use of the iPhone’s camera. I couldn’t do that with my Palm Pilot. I would like to have an easy means of drawing on photos/images, but that’s not the end of the world. I am hopeful that an application for this sort of work will be done in the next few months.

Using phpCollab with the iPhone isn’t hard, but a bit more spacing on some of the action icons would be helpful. The iPhone’s management of forms makes changing form data a snap.

It’s also designed just for GTD. Checkout iDo To Do. There’s a free trial for a month and the cost is only $6. I’m going to play with it for a day or two as it shows promise. I like the email features of RememberTheMilk though, and that’s been a good system thus far.
