For me, inability to coexist with Notational Velocity is a dealbreaker.
When will the Android version be released?
Unless I'm missing something, this is a direct competitor to Evernote, yes? I think I get it - Evernote has always been a bit of a mess IMHO and while it's the best of what existed, it seemed overly complicated and cluttered. This appears to be a measured (and flat) response to that.
When will the Android version be released?
I honestly want to find something new that the app does that is supposed to change my workflow, but there is just nothing. A cynical part of me feels like this exists (especially with the $5 price tag) just to ride the fame coattails of Gruber+Simmons+Wiskus.
I don't condemn them for taking the opportunity of their current notoriety. I'm coming off of week 4 of an app launch that completely failed to garner any reviews or growth, so it does really hurt to see reviews of this app that are nearly 4,000 words long: http://www.macstories.net/reviews/vesper-review-collect-your...
It appears to me by purchasing this app, you are trading the features of existing products for a slick design. I'm particularly impressed with how they have spun the lack of features as a feature ("simple and elegant", "imposes no system") For me, inability to coexist with Notational Velocity is a dealbreaker.
Interesting name. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=define+vesper
Given Gruber's love of all things Bond, I respect that the name comes from the first Bond girl (and great cocktail) Vesper Lynd. Edit: Ah, their company's name is "Q Branch" which is the division that provides all of Bond's gadgets.
Imagine someone creating "Imperial Studios" that released their new "Luke" and "Darth" apps.
