Things 1.0 Release Candidate Available

picture-12For those of you waiting for Things, the beautiful task management/GTD app for the Mac, to be released next week at Macworld, you can get your hands on the version 1.0 release candidate now by going to their website. According to Cultured Code:
The Release Candidate is almost identical to the final version that will be released in a week. In addition to bugfixes and performance improvements, it includes some of the most requested features of the past months: global search, filtering by due date, and now also a restructured Today list.

Things retails for $49.95, but can be purchased for $39.95 by using the coupon code "THINGSPRESALE20" by January 15, 2009.

Last week, I wrote about The Hit List, singing its praises. Even so, I still have a strong affinity for Things. I've been using Things for several months and find it to be a very comfortable application. Ultimately, the price tag may be the decider for me.  For $39.95, Things will be an easy choice for anybody reluctant to part with $70 for The Hit List of $80 for OmniFocus.

I downloaded the rc of things today and like the new icons. But other than the eye-candy, I find myself using TaskPaper a lot more. Now, if only it had an iPhone app.
