Pros: Users are capable of leaving messages for themselves or others in order to jog their memory. Notifications can be sent via e-mail, text messages and even instant messaging services. There are Key Words that make sending notes simple and convenient.

Cons: reQall's audio notes are only 30 seconds in length. While that makes sense in a 'quick memory jogging' kind of way, I know that I would love to have longer notes. Also, the lack of Push notification is a definite downer. As easy as it is to receive text messages with my infiniteforever texting program, I'd prefer that the application be more standalone.

Bottom Line: As a memory-jogging application, reQall definitely brings Convenience to the table. The inclusion of audio transcription and sharing makes this application in a league of its own. Solely in the field of Note-Taking applications, however, I would prefer something with longer audio recording times, and I can't really predict how long this application will stick around. Evernote actually allows 60-second audio notes, and even allows users to upload an image they prefer from the iPhone. reQall is a great 'Reminder' application, however, and well worth at least one noble try.
