OF is why I bought an iPhone. I had an ipad, and tried all the GTD stuff, but the news of the coming OFiPad app lead me to try the desktop demo. Once I saw how well this all worked, it dawned on me that it wouldn't work forme unless I had it in my pocket, so I finally got an iPhone. It's more important to me than the phone at this point.

For the people who think it's too expensive I can only way (with a big friendly :D) - quit yer whining, you don't need it. Stick to a simple 99c to-do list and then everyone's happy aren't they!

I'm a happy user of OF on the desktop, less so on iDevices. I've already paid for and deleted OG and OGS from my iPad and I doubt I'll put them back unless some compelling new feature is introduced (OmniGroup Format?:)).
I believe that until Apple permits a paid App upgrade path (so that Omni can generate a revenue stream from its existing client base), then even the most evangelistic and dedicated fanboys of all things Omni need new users and for them to be happy new users.
I have a developer pal who has two paid Apps that have consistently remained in the UK general top 50 since their launch several years ago. He tells me that once your App drops to 2 stars it's game over.
I want Omni to succeed and remain willing to improve and innovate OmniFocus and for me that means I shouldn't shy away from trying to appreciate and, if I can, address other users understandably sometimes negative opinions, whether or not I agree with them. If I do agree with them, being a paid up Member, I feel free to say so. Sorry RiK, but IMHO I don't think telling them they're "whining" or "stick to a simple 99c to-do list" helps them (except to perhaps post negative App Store reviews), Omni or over the long term, us.
