6/23/12: I eventually decided I wanted a dedicated to-do list app, and found a good one: GoTasks.
1/3/14: Notespark services except for export were shut down on 12/31/13.
The Palm Tasks functionality is like a to-do list, with the ability to assign a priority between 1 and 5 to each item. You could check each item off when it was done, keeping an archive record of it on your PC if you chose. I just learned a moment ago that you could also set a due date on an item, a feature I obviously never used.
I simply used Palm Tasks as a somewhat longer term to-do list, which I only occasionally consulted. Given that, I created five Notespark (which I first wrote about here) Tags tasks1 through tasks5, and used copy and paste operations on my PC (between Palm Desktop and Notespark's web interface) to throw all the items having a priority of 1 into a single note with the Tag tasks1, doing the analogous operation down to the items having a priority of 5. Then I synched Notespark to get those items onto my iPod.
I never archived checked-off Tasks items on the Palm, I merely deleted them. Keeping all the items in Notespark notes allows me to access them rapidly without needing a dedicated to-do list app, and I just delete the text of any item that I finish.
