That's some pretty good initiative! Scott,

I was disappointed that there was no message boards or user forums so I created some at usetoodledo.com We're still a small group but growing steadily. Come by and share your tips and tricks.

I would give it a try, but I just can't justify switching systems right now. However, I'm sure I'll get bored with Toodledo before too long. :) Erik – Mentat does look like a capable system.

It has similar features to <a href="http://mentat.brainmurmurs.com" rel="nofollow">Mentat</a> which is what I use at work. <a href="http://mentat.brainmurmurs.com" rel="nofollow">Mentat</a> has a few more things like <a href="jott.com" rel="nofollow">Jott</a> support so you can call in tasks from your cell phone on the move. It also has a snazzy iPhone interface, and a desktop Agenda view that lets you sample tasks from any of your chosen project folders and decide what to do that day. It works splendidly for everything from bug tracking to collaborating with contractors to getting groceries, for me at least. We recently went live with it too, so you should try it out and let us know what you think. We really appreciate any feedback as we are still developing features. Toodledo looks pretty nice.

I don't think I'm ready to jump from the e-ship yet, but you've got me considering it. By the way, I love the mothership / satellite distinction. Sweet!

The closest I've gotten so far in going digital is <a href="http://www.dcubed.ca" rel="nofollow">D3</a>. Web-based apps offer convenience and features, but I can't justify "giving" my data to another party, especially if it's privileged or sensitive info. D3 offered me a great solution in that it lived in my browser and carried with me on a USB drive. I currently have a letter-sized Levenger Circa. The larger size is a bit much to carry around, but I like to print out documents to include in my planner. The Circa notebook is for planning, reference and future items. When I'm mobile, I keep my tasks on 3x5 cards as a satellite to my main planner. I too am a paper person. The closest I’ve gotten so far in going digital is D3.

It's the Classic planner size, so it's kind of big. If I go somewhere where carrying my main planner is inconvenient, I'll have my satellite planner with me (Moleskin). I use it to capture stuff with. At the end of the day, I synch my satellite material with the mothership planner. It's worked out well for me. I pretty much carry it with me everywhere.

Do you carry your planner everywhere? I'm tempted to buy a Moleskine and see how I like it. Brett – The big dilemma with pen and paper is not having it when I need it.

I've made my own DIY Franklin Planner that does exactly what I need. However, if there's one electronic planner that could make me convert to digital, it's Scrybe. I finally got a beta invite after 6 months of waiting. I'm blown away by it. It's super easy to use and the interface is really slick. I’m a total pen and paper guy.
