Sorry, I sent this reply to John instead of Ed. Try again . . .

--I understand that once you have applied a context to a task you no longer want to see it in your inbox. That's easily taken care of. Just creat a new view with a different name (for example, Ed'sInbox) and define it as anything that's still in the inbox and does not yet have a context. (If it was for me, I would also want to exclude anything that's completed as well as any folder. You might want to exclude other things as well.
The advanced filter for this is
((TopLevelFolderName contains '<inbox>') AND (not(complete)) AND (not(IsFolder)) AND (Contexts is empty))
You can probably find a tutorial on how to use advanced filters. Any other questions, come back here.
Once this is set up, stop looking in the INBOX view and always use Ed'sInbox instead. As soon as anything in the inbox gets a context it will no longer appear in your view.

I agree. If a task is in the inbox, then you have to use move to get it out of the inbox. The inbox, to me, is a folder.
