    Hi Bruce, while we're still hard at work on a native Mac app, we haven't set a release date just yet. We're pretty anxious to get it in your hands, so we'll be sure to post updates on all of our channels once we're ready to roll it out. Please stay tuned!

        As a longtime solution director at another major global software development company, I've learned to recognize the difference between dreams and plans. The recent response from MSFT sounds more like a dream. When a software release is PLANNED, there is a product roadmap that clearly communicates what/when/how. The fact that MSFT hasn't shown us Wunderlist refugees a roadmap for To-Do suggests several things:

            - To-Do isn't a commercial/strategic priority for MSFT

                 and/or

            - There is a plan but MSFT perceives that it will not be well-received so delaying the message

                 is the safest course of action

            - The competitive posture of MSFT and Apple is inhibiting MSFT from enabling the OS X platform

         

        When a software company is in a wait state, the usual tactic is to 'freeze the market' by occasionally doling out non-specific messages to keep the user community's hopes up so they don't defect to another vendor solution in the meantime.

         

        As a longtime lover of Wunderlist, I am disappointed. I hate to be the bearer of bad news to my fellow OS X colleagues but I think the changes are becoming slimmer and slimmer that we will see the To-Do platform further extended to Apple.

         

        If I'm wrong (and I hope I am), maybe this post will provoke MSFT to lay its cards on the table and give us some accurate and specific info.
