Android update
Hi everybody!
It’s time for the long overdue update on whats happening with Android.
After some discussion, and looking at where we’ve got to with Android to date, we’ve decided to abandon the current direction we were taking with the Android app. Instead, we’ve decided to go with the fine folks at WhereCloud to develop the Android version of Nirvana.
In the end, it is the right choice, and should lead to a stronger product on that platform. Thanks to all the beta testers to date who have shared feedback with us. For those of you on Android, you can continue using the beta if it helps you out on your day to day.
While we’re loath to give dates, I can tell you the timeline currently on the boards should see a v1.0 in about 2 months, barring any major hiccups.

Nirvana for iPhone available on the AppStore
Nirvana is a GTD® task manager for Getting Things Done®.
Capturing thoughts whenever they occur and confidently drilling down to the thing you should be doing right now is at the heart of Nirvana — freeing your mind to be in the moment and focused on the task at hand.
This app is the mobile extension of the critically acclaimed, cloud-based Nirvanahq.com desktop app — the trusted system of thousands around the world, always in-sync, and now always with you.
iPhone app submitted to AppStore
The Nirvana iPhone app has been submitted to the AppStore for review … and so now we wait for Apple to approve. Fingers crossed! Major props to Mitch, our mobile lead, for getting this done (and for putting up with yours truly’s perfectionist streak), and to all of the beta testers who gave invaluable feedback along the way.
We’ll post an announcement once the app becomes available for download. :-)
iPhone, Android & iPads oh my!
Mitch started a discussion in the forums about where we stand re: mobile apps. I thought it would be good to cross-post this here for those who want to be in the know, but might not normally participate in the discussion forums. -Elbert

There’s been a lot of talk about development scheduling of the iPhone, Android & iPad version of Nirvana app. I’d like to share a bit of the thinking behind the approach we’re taking. I’ve recently come on board, and am initially working on the mobile app side of things.
For development, we’re using the Titanium Mobile framework. One of the biggest wins with using Titanium is the fact that it’s javascript powered. Nirvana itself is a web app with all the logic coded up in javascript running client side. A large portion of the code powering Nirvana in your browser can be reused in the native app. This means we don’t have to maintain the logic behind Nirvana on numerous platforms. This is a big win.
