So why such a low rating? For starters, the Safari clipper plugin is now a plain bookmarklet, which means it's going to add web pages using the Evernote web site, rather than do it direct to the application. This means you can't easily clip private pages like receipts or tax documents without it going in an online synced notebook, and it also tends to lose a lot of formatting fidelity along the way. They could write a new plugin that would work with Safari 5.1, but have decided that a bookmarklet is "good enough".
They also added Lion full-screen mode, but its implementation is terrible. When in full screen, you will NOT use list view. You will NOT use snippet view. You will NOT view actual content at the same time as the view. You will NOT sort the "list" any way but alphabetically by first letter. You WILL like the thumbnail and size Evernote has chosen. And that is the ONLY way you will use Evernote in full screen. Here, take a look at the difference:
Normal:

Full Screen:

Doing nothing (i.e., use the existing three-pane single-window interface) would have been infinitely better. As it is, they've poured effort into making the interface worse and less usable.

It would be an excellent 5-stars app, if it could do indent, support Markdown tag, and/or editing raw HTML source.
At the moment, I am looking for other alternative apps.

I use EverNote intensively (local folders only which are in my dropbox so they get synced on all my computers) and it works fantastically well.

Every time I start it, I get that irritating "welcome to Evernote" video and I cannot get rid of it in prefs or anywhere.
Furthermore, I cannot get the web page capture to work because a logon keeps popping up.
It seems like I cannot do anything at all to even evaluate the application without creating an account.
I DO NOT want an account, not even for free. I just want to try it local and see how well it does or doesn't work and if it fits my needs.
Am I missing something? Is there any way to get rid of these popups and account problems so I can use it locally and see if it's any good?
I am not willing to create yet another account to use a local application on my computer.
In fact, I will block it from the internet if it tries to phone home, even if I do like it and want to use it.
I am looking for a good clean notes utility with an iTunes type of interface.
Maybe this isn't even close. I don't know, because it's unusable.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a good one?
I would like smart folders, Quicklook, etc....
I have purchased other in the past, like Notebook3, but it's not too complicated and takes too much time to enter notes.
I really want something iTunes/iPhoto like.
Something private that is not a security risk sending who know what, who knows where out to the internet.

Try SOHO Notes. You will see some off the wall reviews on MU and some have valid concerns but the program does what you say you are looking for. I have tried most and I love the ability to sync (privately if I wish or soon via iCloud in the near future.) Until I switched to Lion syncing between my computers was done in the background without a hitch. I now do that manually until.
The desktop version can do so much more than just notes, access from scanners, drag and drop, grabbing web clippings and notes are available from the finder without opening the program, etc. While Devonthink, Yojimbo, Together and others are very good they are not as good as Soho Notes when it comes to the feature set, ease of use, little or no learning curve, a really nice user interface, etc.
In fact the program operates much like iPhoto or iTunes as you say you want. You can make forms for input to standardize certain types of information and as I said search your notes from the finder.
That was the good but I will get flamed if I do not tell you the not so good. Support is iffy at best. Although I have needed them only twice in the years and years I have had the program (since it was Sticky Notes and being given away with a Mobil Me subscription) responses to support requests are not always a sure thing. Some people say it is buggy??? but I guess that depends on what you want to do with it. I see so many reviews here where people are trying to make a program do what they want instead of what the developer designed it to do! I have not had that problem in the many years. Developers are quick to fix issues once they are aware of them. I have "never" lost a note in this program and I have 1279 notes to date that include PDF's, Pictures, web clippings, scanned documents, etc. They are working to get the iCloud sync up as we speak and I don't doubt that it will be along very soon. I agree with your assessment of Notebook 3 as I have it also. I do use it but find it is not adequate for keeping quick notes on the fly and takes far to much maneuvering to create a note. Hope this helps.

You might find Growly Notes to your liking. It seems to fit your requirements ...also free. A number of my friends believe it's the best; all of them are former MS One Note users from the world of PCs.
I cannot recommend anything from Chronos, including SOHO Notes. I have experience with this company. Chronos software is definitely buggy, expensive, and they are constantly demanding "upgrade" fees (and even after the "upgrades," the software remains buggy).

So it appears that Evernote is aware of the problem and is trying to fix it. I tried the suggested fix for clearing the toolbar, etc. but it didn't work, but that was 1Password specific. I'm writing to EVN to see if there is a fix SOON, because I too use it daily on my job search.
Regards,
Ben
