Dave:

I’ve been looking for an outliner app for a handheld computer like a Palm or Handspring. As you were pretty much the creator of the outliner genre, I was wondering if you knew of such software anywhere—or given thought to creating it?

I’m imagining something much simpler than Radio or Frontier; probbaly even simpler than ThinkTank, Ready or MORE.

Mainly I just want something I can drag text around in a hierarchical tree, but ideally I would also like the ability to work with the outlines on some host machine, a Mac or PC. So if it synch’d to the host in some format that Radio or Frontier could edit, you might have a cool add-on for those products.

Unfortunately, I doubt there’s commercial potential for such a thing; it might only be worth doing if you or someone else thought it would be cool or fun to write.

Any ideas?
