Astrid, my personal assistant
Since I have started relying more and more and on my iPhone and iPad to track tasks, I now use a free (gotta love that word!) task manager called Astrid. What I really like about Astrid is that I can talk to it (her?) and it writes stuff down for me! And it has Reminders integration too!
