Actually, to be perfectly honest...I'd love to see MLO and Toodledo work out more of a direct sync option. MLO already has the capability to periodically sync between to PCs using the sync option via Scheduled Tasks and MLO's command line sync option or just using the F9 sync option. If MLO built up capability to sync to Toodledo via this path, Toodledo is probably flexible enough organize MLO data in a meaningful way. Sure there's some MLO features that wouldn't be available in Toodledo, but that actually goes both ways.
I generally do my in-depth planning and heavy note taking at a PC (would love this to be MLO). I execute and capture many tasks from my iPhone (Toodledo for iPhone works well for this). The thing I don't like doing so much is heavy planning in Toodledo's interface when compared to MLO, although I like Toodledo better than just about anything else due to it's flexibility. I bet a good MLO to Toodledo sync option could be pulled off quicker than a good MLO iPhone app. Either way works for me!!
