So I want to start this with saying that I love Ulysses. I love the Soulmen, their support, and their products. However...

Why make Ulysses Mobile? I might be in the minority, but why make Ulysses an application on the iphone/ipod touch? I really can see myself opening up Ulysses Mobile and writing and/or editing a document using /tags or any other feature that makes Ulysses such a great application. I use Ulysses for documents, writing, and many other tid bits of information, but I can't see myself opening up a mobile version and writing a document on my Iphone. I just can't...

I suppose my biggest beef is, why not spend the time making Ulysses for Mac better than spending time/effort of an application that doesn't really seem very practical on a mobile OS?

Will you use Ulysses Mobile? I want your opinions? I want your thoughts.

Why Ulysses Mobile?

I definitely want to use Ulysses on my iPhone. I once wrote almost an entire novel on the old Psion Revo (in the 90s, before laptops became ubiquitous) while on the train to and from work. I can see myself doing the same with my phone, though typing is a lot harder on the iPhone. It would also be great to be able to edit and read text on the go. I've tried copying documents to other apps so that I can work on them away from my computer, but I often forget which is the most recent version--Ulysses or the other app. Hopefully the future version of Ulysses would be able to tell which is the latest version of a document. I simply can't wait.

Its thoose words that escape you when in front of youre imac or macbook, the thoughts that comes when your on the train or walking somewhere..you never know what connects thoose patherns in the brain..and when it connects, where do you put it..:)
I like U.Mobile..i have found myself using it after i went to bed, half asleep, then it came..the last piece, at meetings, parties..
In a perfect world we all would be in front of our imacs and macbooks, all day writing, being poets..but sometimes we need to get out and fetch whatever is there..

I agree. Initially I thought I would not use my iPod Touch for writing. In a sense, that's still true. But using the beta I now have 10 projects in it, with several notes each, all with thoughts that came to me at times I was not behind my computer, nor felt like taking place behind one (or too far away!). Quite apart from the fact that these projects relate to Ulysses files, and it is therefore much neater to have them in Ulysses Mobile than in, say, Evernote, the layout is particularly striking and conductive to writing in ways similar to Ulysses Senior. It is also possible to use inline tags—if you're not taking notes, but actually writing a paragraph, that's very useful to have available.
If this applies to a small screen as that of the iPhone/iPod Touch, it stands to reason that Ulysses Junior will be incredibly useful on an iPad. And I want an iPad, but I'm probably blowing my budget away on a camera tomorrow. That's to say, for the time being. I do believe that iPad will replace my iPod Touch eventually.
All in all, I've come to love Ulysses Mobile, even without syncing—when later releases include syncing, that's bliss.

For me, my main focus is on ulysses on mac, my imac and macbook. U.Mobile is a nice add..gives one a nice comfort when traveling or when stuck somewhere..still..i think the productivity is going to be limited on mobile devices..even ipad..so much else that have to be there in order to be productive, for fiction writing at least. Reasearch stuff, coffe, music, a focused mindset..
