Even more so with MilkSync out there now.

I am using the new ebay desktop which uses Adobe Air - I would LOVE to see RTM use this technology.

I agree, RTM is the type of app that would work really well in a desktop/online atmosphere. It already sort of does with google gears, maybe a good idea to wait to see what gears does (since they're still in beta) before developing a whole AIR app....i dunno....

Today it took about 5 minutes to get RTM's iGoogle widget into an AIR app using the Aptana IDE. Playing with it to see how well it works.

Neat idea!

I've also put the rememberthemilk website into an Adobe Air app.

It's very simple. Just an iframe with a little extra logic. But the neat feature is that the app will stay in the system tray on WinXP. Whe you minimise it will not appear on the taskbar but stay out of the way in the system tray. You can restore it from there.

That should do some people until the RTM guys do a proper Adobe AIr app.

It's available here

hmmm, this isn't anything different then what Prism has. it's gonna pretty hard to make a AIR app w/o a different API

it doesn't work. "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which is no longer supported"

:(

@jamie.good - The AIR app is not working

I would love to see an AIR app for RTM!!

+1 from me! Actually more than +1 but you get the idea. For reference material look at the Todoist Sidebar Firefox plugin and the Toggl.com Toggl Desktop app they have. This would be cool to see. These AIR apps are pretty useful, I have to admit, just cuz they eliminate the need to keep certain windows open in a browser and delegate the task to desktop icons, which is cool :)

I agree. I use so many tabs in my browser that RTM gets lost and becomes less useful. An AIR app would help it be distinct and easy to access as I need it throughout the day.

Would be nice a Adobe Air app from the RTM team :)

Check this one out:

What I would like to see is a standalone app/wrapper such as AIR, but I don't want to loose the Gears offline functionality.

Can Google Gears make standalone windows?

I agree. I would love to see a RTM app using Adobe AIR. That would be awesome! I would be cool to be able to post new events and get popup notifications for reminders.

Works for me but the question is why would I want to use it when I have it open in one tab of Firefox at all times? I also have RTM in my Google page. Any suggestion as to why having an Air app that consumes almost as much CPU as FF would be useful?

BTW, love what you did with it. Nice

+1 from me.

I am currently making an air application for rtm that has built in offline support

see this thread http://www.rememberthemilk.com/forums/ideas/7477/

The alpha will launch next week

I've created a Remember The Milk Adobe AIR app, download it from here:

Let me know what you think!

Hey, "Remember The Task" seems to be a good adobe air "remember the milk" application.

http://www.alecrust.com/RTM.air > Nice, but it indeed eats extra CPU/RAM and no extra functionality.

Remember the task is very nice, eats just a little CPU and gives you a great overview (no clutter). Well done!

All I need now are reminders on my desktop.

I don't like the idea. I recently tried out an AIR app, but it was slow, and pain to use. Even the uninstallation took over a minute. But it was just a simple timer program.

I dont know if it's common, but from what i saw i really hate this AIR platform.

I want an official Adobe Air version, that can cache the tasks for offline use. For when internet is not available like on a plane, etc. Could be made just like the iPAD version but runs on Air.
