Interesting. The only downside I have to this is that text messaging is a slow process (even if you are the reigning texting champion).

For the past month or so I've been experimenting with the use of Jott and RTM.

Jott is a free service which allows you to send text messages/emails to any of your contacts (or groups of contacts) via an 800 number.

So my flow is I call Jott (via a speed dial), tell it I want to "Jott" RTM, say my task, hang up, and it sends an email to my RTM account and puts the task in my Inbox.

The only pet peeve I have to this is that you have to speak slowly and clearly for the transcription to be accurate and the task shows up as "[Jott from ...] Insert task here" versus just the task itself.

Regardless, it's still much quicker and more convenient to say my task than text it out.
