Why you not like 3.1 or 3.5?

I wanted a replacement for EverNote2.2, so I needed something qualitatively the same.
EverNote3 is qualitatively different than EverNote2, and not what I want.
On an earlier thread someone said that the company that makes it dates the release of EverNote3 as the birthday of the EverNote application.
My reply was, “they might as well.”

Ok. Just wondering what you feel makes them so different. I realise 2.2 has some perks being a more desktop application, but overall they seem quite similar.

2.2 has lots of features that 3.5 doesn’t: inter-note links, subnotebooks, and the “continuous tape” view are the three that seem to be most talked about.
But what strikes me is that - from what I recall - CintaNotes does not have any of these features, either (except arguably the tape view).
So in other words, switching to CintaNotes causes you to lose all the same features you would lose by moving from EN 2.2. to EN 3.5. Plus you also lose rich text, embedded images, and embedded files. Seems to me that you might as well just move to 3.5—the data transfer is certainly easier.

Evernote2.2 is a screw driver. CintaNotes is a screw driver. Evernote3 is a swiss army knife with a screwdriver blade.
I carry a swiss army knife in my pocket.
I keep a screw driver in my workshop.
If I lose the screw driver in my workshop, I go buy a new screw driver, not a swiss army knife.
What I would use EverNote3 for I have covered with OneNote and Surfulater.
Either OneNote or Surfulater could accomplish what I use CintaNotes for.
Both would be awkward and clunky at it.
CintaNotes is eloquent, quick, and easy at what I use it for.
So was EverNote2.2. It really worked well at what I needed it for.
