      Backpack becomes an extremely more appealing option if you factor in Packrat (Mac OS X only), an offline client that can sync with Backpack once you get online. I've written about it a few times on TUAW:

      I've also put it through its paces, like editing a little on Packrat, a little on Backpack and syncing. It works incredibly well, and while it can't edit quite ALL the elements of Backpack just yet (for example: Packrat can't create new pages - yet), this $24.95 shareware app makes Backpack a killer PIM both on and offline.

        The Backpack widgets out there make Backpack so stupidly simple for setting reminders and quick notes too...

              I agree. But why only MacOS?
