I paid a dollar and downloaded the version, it really works. However there is a lot of scope for improvement, some of them are:

1. Make this a sidebar plugin, currently i have to go to the activex control list and select it. Making it a sidebar plugin using the GD SDK will also add other nice features like a proper title, about dialog, description in the add/remove panels dialog etc. Also you can add your options to the plugin's menu and not have everything in the context menu.

2. Make the interface based on the GD item UI model. That way when you click on a task in the plugin you can show a details window with the notes for that task. Currently there is no way to see that from the plugin and we have to open outlook for that.

3. The scrollbar has issues, if i click on it when there are only 2 items the content scrolls down to the end of the page.

But it is impressive and can be a very useful plugin once the UI kinks have been workedout. I also suggest you submit this to Google for getting listed in their plugins page, that will get you a lot more visitors.
