I’m looking for a good life management/reminder/appointment/goalsetting/todo type app that has a Mac counterpart. I don’t want to have to do everything on the iphone because it’s a pain to type on. But I want to be able to carry my plans/goals with me.

The Omnigroup has made Omnifocus for iphone, but I have never been happy with that program.

All other suggestions very welcome.

Outlook? I need to connect to my VPN to see if Outlook 11 (Mac) is just like Outlook at the office, which is what I use to manage all of that.
