I am a heavy user of Toodledo on my iPhone, and I always found that the biggest issue I had was how long it took to add tasks. However, I have found a great solution, and I wanted to share it with the community.

The trick is to add tasks via the Mail application on the iPhone. Set up email task input on Toodledo, then create a contact on your iPhone with your personal toodledo email address (mine is named "Toodledo.";) To quickly add a task, click the button to create a new message, and press the first letter for the name of your contact. Then in the subject field, input the task. To further refine the process, you can create a folder or context in Toodledo that contains tasks that still need to be processed. I created a folder called "p", and use Toodledo's special syntax to file all incoming tasks in that folder. As a final flourish, you can create a new message addressed to your Toodledo contact, switch the focus to the subject line, and then switch applications. When you want to quickly create a new task, all you need to do is open up the Mail application.

Enjoy. :)

Good idea, and indeed I had been using the mail app (with gmail's filtering/labels prowess) as a todo/notes doohickey before iphone transformed into version 2.x. Since then, I coughed up $10 to purchase Appigo's ToDo. Pretty bare bones, but great for quick captures, with a quick tap to sync it to ToddleDo. And thankfully, stable!
