I would rather not wait if I can get going now. Usually pushing yourself into something that you might not be quite ready for means that you have to take responsibility for it.
There are too many hopeful entrepreneurs that think "I'm not quite ready, so I'll do it in a month" - and have done so for years. In my experience it is better to push forward into the great unknown....
And there was another I can't seem to find now where a Google employee explicitly stated in response to people petitioning for one that a task manager was in the works .
Google does some nice stuff, and they have huge brand recognition, so I definitely worry about them. That said, I think that the whole productivity app business needs to be thought about in a different way, the way it works now you're always trying to shoehorn your project into something that almost but not quite fits. I hope to have an advantage in that department.
I'd say don't even worry about Google, because, frankly, Google could build a spaceship if it wanted to...who could stop it? Any company that can tell the U.S. government "no" has some power...so focus on what you can effect...your cutting-edge product
