How does notes work

[ebob]

If there is no capability for entering notes on the iPhone (sychronized with some notes app on the Mac), that will be a deal breaker for me. As well as Tasks, but I'm hoping there will be parity for that:

iCal calendar <--> iPhone Calendar
iCal tasks <--> iPhone Calendar or ___?

You might want to watch the demo. It specifically tells you how to sync your iCal and iContacts with your phone.

I did scan pretty well through the 20 minute demo, and just scanned it again. I just viewed the Activation and Sync video. Perhaps I missed it, but I don't recall seeing anything in either video about how the iPhone handles tasks, if it does at all. In the sync video, it shows that it syncs iCal events, but does not specifically mention tasks. I understand that iCal syncs with the iPhone Calendar, but I am unclear on the tasks aspect. My question is not about iContacts. Which video specifically informs that tasks in iCal show up in Calendar? I think you are mistaken about that being shown.

I forgot to mention notes. Anyone know if the iPhone has a notes capability?

if you watch Pogue's review http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/nytimes-p...iew-272554.php, he shows the notes app on his iPhone.

I see Word, Excel, and pdf's, but not a notes app. Do you know about where in the video that is?

Hopefully it will be more than syncing notes from computer. I would like to add notes and calender events on the go.

See Demo. Indeed

Which demo, the 20 minute one, and at what time? I am not finding input of notes or tasks (or even calendar events) in the 20 minute one.

Eliza, Thank you so much for getting the time -- it was such a short part, I really appreciate it! Made my day...
