HOW DOES THIS DIFFER FROM OTHER TODO MANAGERS?
Proper todo management is essential, but it’s only part of the picture.
Pocket Informant is a full featured PIM, so it lets you focus on everything you do in a day - not just your todo list. We believe bringing your appointments and todos together in one place is more efficient than working in isolated calendar and todo management systems. Pocket Informant is designed to not force you into any one method of doing things - use our Todo View as rigidly or freely as you want, using GTD principles, Franklin Covey, or your own system.
WHY DO I NEED THIS WHEN I HAVE A CALENDAR?
We love our iPhones, but we saw some untapped potential for a full-featured PIM. Pocket Informant fills that gap. To start with, we made navigation very natural - simply swipe between the months, or tap the month name to jump to a new date. For those of us who have several events in a day, we built a time bar so you can see how your day is blocked off at a glance. When looking at a day’s activities, we show you your appointments AND todos together, and we give you nearly the entire screen to see them. We offer a convenient view to quickly see activities going on "today", and we built a great week view as well.
For years, these and numerous other features have made Pocket Informant a must-have application for school teachers, soccer moms, salesmen and executives alike.
If you are a user of Pocket Informant from another platform, be sure to note that while we have crafted the iPhone version from the same stock, it is a different application. Many of the most-requested features have been included and many more are coming. Of course, we spent time making sure to take advantage of the iPhone's unique capabilities in the process. A few of your favorite features may not have made it in these releases yet.

Macworld user reviews IN DETAIL:
Almost perfect...
This app does a great job of managing calendar and todo info. The only issue I have had is occasional duplication of calendar events, but it actually does a better job of syncing than the google active sync functionality.If the full version was cheaper, I would have owned it a long time ago!
