For ToDo I use RememberTheMilk. The Android program is not free, but you can use Astrid which I've heard works well. I paid for Pro so I could have the Android app. Integrates with Google, but I don't think they cater to GTD but I don't think it would be hard considering how flexible the tool is. You can email yourself tasks, lists of tasks, set priorities, etc.
My problem is limiting work and actually getting up to stretch. If I get into the zone, a few hours can go by and I'll have totally lost track of how long I had been working.
