Hi JG,
you're right, the BB task app is a pain in the **** though the missing demo version of NextAction! is. However, I made a blue shot and am lucky that I did it. It works for me as I am straight forward implementing GTD. So here is the answer as far as I can tell from my experience:
- Accurately sync with Exchange/Outlook as claimed
Yes, it works fine but you might need some time to know how to add tasks in you outlook. E.g. you need to assign a project/context to a task. If there is no such assignment the tasks will not be shown in NA as it is based on the conext-relation (GTD-specific). However, those tasks are on the device and can be accessed through the BB application.
- Allow you to set low/regular/high prioirties and sync these to Outlook
As this is not part of the GTD principle, this is not possible with NA. :(
- Allow input of notes for tasks and sync these with Outlook
Yes, but you cannot add line breaks in the notes field in the current version.
- Sync over any reminders you have set on your Outlook tasks
As far as I have seen, yes.
Moreover, I have heard from some people that there is an evaluation possible if you ask them. Moreover, the 30-day unconditional money back guarantee seems to work fine. I have a friend who tried NA but thought it is not what he wanted (he's more a todomatrix fan and does not need outlook synchronization). So he asked for a refund and received it quite fast. Nice support! They also asked for the reasons my friend didn't want NA anymore. So it seems they do really care about what people think. I am also pretty sure there will come a more enhanced version in the near future. I just have that feeling because they regularily ask NA-users for comments and improvement suggestions. I know that because I sometimes receive a mailing ...
Ah, there is a nice feature overview of the current version NextAction! 1.6.1:
