"Following the minimal-design principles laid about by the Metro UI, Ahead is not flashy but does enable quick access to basic project management sections including: tasks, time tracking, projects, accounts (funding), clients and setting."
It's great to already see a few apps that'll be available for Windows Phone 7. While you may not throw up your hands up and scream "yeah!" out of excitement, Ahead Project Manager is one of those apps that may prove to be very useful if you're into managing projects on-the-go.
As WMExperts 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.
Do you currently manage projects from a smartphone? And/or would you consider checking this out? Tell us what you think.

This is the key question, isn't it? Unfortunately, WP7 doesn't have Tasks, so you won't be able to sync whatever you enter with Outlook or Exchange. The "clients" you enter there aren't contacts, although you can "sync" the two, but it's still kind of an extra unneeded step.
So it's another example of what WP7 could be, but won't, definitely not at first.
