Hello

The venerable EccoPro offered a great in-place outliner to organize tasks into sub-tasks, and add a Due Date to any item so that they would be also displayed in the Calendar (and in a Palm pilot if the used had one).

It seems like Outlook only supports a single-level task list:

Is there an add-on to Outlook to do this, or another application than Outlook provided it's also capable of syncing with a BlackBerry?

Thank you.
