Does this mean you can now see all your tasks sorted by category or do you still have to filter and just show the ones for individual contexts? And do you still have to use the pathetic BB tasks application to add tasks and categories?
I tried the demo and was not impressed at all, actually I was quite disappointed its very similar to the v.4, I was under the impression it was something revolutionary, but I guess not, what are you going to do.
