Weathering Those Brainstorms on the Go with MindManager Mobile X5 for Pocket PC "Pros:
• Great synchronization with desktop software;
• Can create mindmaps on the fly. Cons:
• Expensive;
• Does not allow for the same freeform inputting;
• Not much use without the $200.00 to $300.00 desktop software. Summary:
Many people have heard of mindmapping software for desktop PCs, which helps to organize ideas and structure thoughts, but that only works when you are sitting at your desk. Some of my best thoughts occur when I am walking through a store, or sitting in a restaurant. Can MindManager Mobile X5 for Pocket PC help me to herd these thoughts into something usable?"
Long time readers of this site may remember back in 2003 I wrote my own review of Mind Manager + Mobile and sort of bumped it up against Pocket Mindmap. I think John Walkosak and I came to some similar conclusions. The desktop version is great, very versatile, but the mobile version is a bit limiting and difficult to work with.
I know several of you have worked with these products, what do you think?
I thnk MindManager is the best of the best if you use the desktop version. It is a little costly but has powerful integration to outlook, word, project and powerpoint. The PPC version needs the map view in my opinion.
