Here's what I use: Toodledo website (free version, which is all I need), which I can update at home or at work; Toodledo Outlook Sync application from Chromatic Dragon (free, but I paid $5 anyway, and use this at home); and Todo from Appigo on the iPhone, which synchs to the website). Thus I can keep the website, my iPhone, and Outlook in synch. There is a Todo Lite version, but it allows only a limited number of tasks. Of course, the system is only as good as the regular attention I pay to it, but so far I haven't found anything else that works for me.

I have one task that I keep putting off and everyday, it appears in the notifications area.

They have a great iPhone client that is very affordable, their free package in the web is very full featured, their developer is quite responsive to his customers, and their paid package starts in at $15/yr. Its a good alternative to RTM if it meets your needs. --Ken Have you tried Toodledo?

If I was supposed to complete a report yesterday and did not, I expect to be reminded the next day and every day at the pre-set time until I mark it complete. If it can't do that, no thanks. No phone I've used has had that basic tasks functionality since I left the Palm OS Treos. I would add that the app must provide an option for persistent reminders for overdue tasks.

You can sync them to a WinMo phone via MilkSync which would then sync to outlook/exchange. Or you can subscribe to your to do list's iCal feed in outlook and get them in your calendar that way. I'm a heavy exchange user but find I prefer using the RTM website better anyway. Much more flexible that Outlook. You can do amazing things with tags and smart lists on the website and in the iPhone app. I was a happy RTM free user for some time and I'm now a happy RTM Pro user. I use the website and the iPhone app and have reminders sent via email and push. As far as I can tell there is no direct sync with outlook.
