Viira Outlook Suite v1.2 Released Improving GTD BlackBerry Solution

I have a few colleagues that I have introduced to Viira recently and they have been impressed. They recently updated their BlackBerry app to v3.0 but they have just rolled out the update to their Viira Outlook Suite to take advantage of those updates. In case you don’t know Viira is an implementation of GTD task management on your BlackBerry and the Outlook Suite syncs those tasks to Outlook over your BES or over USB.

This new version 1.2 adds the productivity improvements of the v3.0 BlackBerry client along with enhancements like fast iterative search, faster wireless sync, enhanced UI, reminders and a number of other productivity features. You can read more about the update on their blog. The Viira Outlook Suite has a free 14 day free trial which is nice since the purchase price is $69.99 and works with Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010. You can find the free trial and purchase options at www.KartaMobile.com.

Free Conqu is a Powerful Task App for Your BlackBerry PlayBook

 

A couple readers have pointed out a slick task manager called Conqu for the BlackBerry PlayBook. This slick task manager is perfect for those who don’t want to use Tasks over the bridge or simply don’t have a BlackBerry. There is quite a bit of customization available in Conqu for anybody who needs tasks from a simple task list to a GTD style use case. That means you can use it for a shopping list or get more complex by assigning projects, energy, time to finish a task, and additional context like tags.

Main features:

Best of all Conqu is totally free. Hopefully they are working on a BlackBerry smartphone version that will sync (suggest it to them here) but until then you can pick up Conqu in App World.
