While you may not throw up your hands up and scream "yeah!" out of excitement, <a href="http://www.ahead-app.com/" target="_blank">Ahead Project Manager</a> is one of those apps that may prove to be very useful if you're into managing projects on-the-go.</p><p>As <a href="http://www.wmexperts.com/ahead-project-manager-wp7-gets-demoed" target="_blank">WMExperts</a> noted, the interface appears very polished for an early build of the app, but I have to wonder if it works with any desktop PM software at all, or if you're limited to using from your WM7 device only. At this stage it appears not, but we'll know for sure soon.</p><p>Do you currently manage projects from a smartphone? And/or would you consider checking this out? Tell us what you think.</p>
