Quicken Essentials, Perhaps Not so Essential

"I spent the last week or so playing with a copy of the new Quicken Essentials for Mac from Intuit and I can make this review really short for you. If you're a die-hard Quicken user, you will hate (I mean really loathe and despise) the new Quicken Essentials product. If you are new to Personal Finance Management (PFM) software, then you will probably really like Quicken Essentials but still feel a little confused about why you have to pay $60 $69 for it."

I'm not a diehard Quicken user and I hate this too. I've toyed with several finance programs to keep track of my checkbook register, and hated that I had to go back to Quicken to get what I needed. Recently though I found a program called Moneydance so I'm giving that a try. I'll let you know how it all goes. What I am searching for is a program that is on my desktop, that also has an iPhone app that syncs so I can enter stuff on the fly and know that when I open up the desktop version, it matches what is on my iPhone. That isn't too much to ask is it? Moneydance is supposed to come out with an iPhone app soon so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. What do you use to keep your finances in order?
