No, 5.0 doesn't include item level sync.

It does add a publish function that lets you send files over to your mobile device with a click. This feature lets Smartphone users move files more easily (as most of you know, the Windows Mobile Smartphone left out file sync...although that is changing in WM 6+Vista), it gives all users a way to quickly send a file to their device, and it provides a method of automatically sending pictures and other linked files over (so that if you make a really great list with pics on the desktop, you can transfer the file and all associated images to the devices and get the exact same experience there...no need to manually move pics and files.)

We are looking at an improved sync for a future version.

I haven't installed any new apps on my PDA in over 6 months, mainly due to lack of interest. When I saw LP 5.0 I had to check it out. The included GTD template looked so good I moved over my whole GTD world to it from Jello Dashboard. I still don't use it on my PDA much, mostly just on the PC. I also decided to cut over everything I had in phatnotes over to LP 5.0 so I can de-clutter a little.

Anybody else buy PDA apps with the windows counterpart and then end up mainly using the desktop version? That's definitely how it is for me.

I actually started in the opposite direction....moving List Pro stuff to PhatNotes because PhatNotes has more MS Word like features (although List Pro is headed in that direction), PhatNotes has a spellchecker and much better reminder program.

I use my PC normally to create and/or update the data for various programs and only use the PPC and Moto Q for reference. I've had too many problems with updating info on the PPC version and sometimes it syncs back to the PC and sometimes it gets deleted. Activesync occasionally asks if I want to sync "in the other direction" but sometimes it doesn't.
