Thanks a lot,

the key seems to be "too hard to use efficiently"...  I am afraid that
MobileOrg for Android) is indeed much more difficult to use than the
Emacs version.  The strength of Org is that it is easy to use (and
efficient in terms of keystrokes etc.).

I am just wondering...  What is the rationale behind all the syncing
stuff?  Assume that I have all my org files dropboxed - why not just
edit them directly in the mobile version?  I was thinking about it for
some time, and can't see any disadvantages with this approach.  In
fact, since I'm considering learning to write Android apps, I am very
much tempted to use an "org-lite" app (say, just TODOs or capture for
the beginning) as my first project.
