Apple to-do list (GTD) info needed with 17 contributions

OK I've finally been allowed at work to switch from Blackberry to iPhone technology. So I now have a Dell laptop at work and an iPad and iPhone. What is the best way to manage tasks?

I use Outlook as my main email, calendar, contacts, and To-Do task management program. The outlook mail, calendar, and contacts all sync between devices very well. However it appears that Apple really doesn't have much in the way of a native task manager system.

So my question to all of you apple power users is what is the best way to manage my many tasks from Outlook?

I'm prepared to abandon the outlook task manager if there is something superior that I can use between all of my devices. The app store has a lot to choose from but I'm hoping to get help from all you Apple experts out there.

i like Splore, but wonder how I can use it better. Splore was created to make it easy for "people to help people" accomplish things: fun, charity, work, family, etc. Securely, openly if wanted or private if desired. It was created to find people like you, who you don't already know, unlike traditional social networks.

That said, what can we tell the developers that will make this a better site. Ideas, suggestions, from us, the Splore users? Post your comments in the Splore.

Challenge #1: Upload a Photo to Splore.

(See Splore iPad Challenge: http://www.splore.com/splores/297)

We will start easy, there are a few skills that will be needed for the challenge. You will need to learn to upload pictures to splore. The first challenge is to upload a photo you take at your local Wal-mart.

Take a picture of bar of soap in the same picture with a head of lettuce while you are in Wal-mart. Make sure something in the picture proves that you are in a Wal-mart. You don't need to put yourself in the picture, unless you want to:)

Then add a contribution to THIS Splore with the picture and you're done. That's it, Challenge #1 completed.

If you're a college basketball fan, and haven't yet heard of Jimmer Fredette, his performance in Tuesday's game against #4 ranked San Diego State was one for the record books..."the Aztecs got Jimmered". March Madness starting early this year? What do you think?

Favorite mobile apps with 10 contributions

For all you iPhone / iPad / Android (ok, even Blackberry) users out there, I'm interested to know what your favorite apps are. I've got pages and pages of them on my iPhone, though I admit I only use a handful very regularly. Always on the lookout for another good app, though!

4) The clues will be found on Splore.com, or at local businesses.
5) It will be found before Christmas.

Splore Parents' Network with 72 contributions

I would like to model this after the Berkeley Parents Network. Parents ask a question and anyone with experience about it gives their opinion in a non-judgemental way. Then the asker can sort through the responses and hopefully find an answer or solution that will help them.

I have a Meade ETX-90 telescope, which I love, but have never been able to get the AutoStar Controller setup and working right. Since this was one of the main reasons I bought the telescope - an automatic way to find just about anything in the sky - I'd really like some help to get this working right. Anyone out there been through the same experience who could help me out?
