Setting up your desktop to synchronize with your BlackBerry (and vice versa) is very easy. A Windows setup guide for this is covered by your BlackBerry’s manual. Anyway, there are two very good manuals available that cover this topic:

By setting this up all of your tasks in NextAction! can be synchronized to your installation of Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, Act!, Novell Groupwise, iCal, Entourage, etc.

Testimonials

User from Alpharetta, GA, USA - posted at David Allen’s GTD^® Forum:

“[…]I received my first BlackBerry last week and purchased / installed Next Action last evening. My first impressions are very, very positive.
The lure of email, calendar, cell and most GTD^® functionality in one small device is for me compelling. I’ll be working over the next couple of weeks to fully convert my paper-based (Levenger Circa) GTD^® implementation to the BlackBerry.[…]”

Dave from Toronto, Canada - posted at BlackBerryForums.com:

“I recently bought NextAction. I’m not connected with the vendor in any way.
It’s cheaper throught their site than handango “next-action.com” […]
Basically, it does what is promised. Saves time and keystrokes which is valuable to me on a handheld device with a reduced keyboard (I have 7130e).
I like the ability to hide categories that are not relevant to GTD^® tasks. The synching with Outlook task list works fine. The only shortcoming I see is that NextAction can’t see the notes field in an outlook task while the Blackberry task list can. This is not a big deal fro me as I use the Outlook task list for next actions more than projects (both used in the GTD^® sense).[…]”
