If you like a native app (OSX, iOS and Windows), take a look at http://www.notebooksapp.com

It's very clean, allows markdown, and the best feature is that it keeps your content as files on disk, so even if you stop using the app, you still got your content (not hidden away in a database). Plus you can easily use dropbox, rsync or whatever to sync it. It's a really great app.

This looks great. I've been looking for an offline alternative to Evernote for a while now. Are there any other decent Mac apps I should consider?
I used NoteSuite before, but wasn't too happy with it. It's UI is quirky, tries too hard and gets mostly in your way. Notebooks doesn't fall into that trap. I'm not aware of others but my research into it wasn't that exhaustive, so if there are other decent OS X apps I'd love to hear about it too.
