Hi, It looks like you asked me a question, then I did not get a chance to reply before you closed my post- So I've copied and pasted the original post below, so that I could answer your question.
In answer to your question, I use a few other Get It Done based task apps (mainly because I need to separate work and personal tasks, and doit.im does not yet have the area capability to separate tasks).
Getitdoneapp.com lets you delete comments, although their comment feature is more similar to the task description feature in doit.im. I could just utilize the task description for comments, but the comment button is more prominent in the ipad app, and comments can easily be added by mistake (requiring the delete option).
NirvanaHQ.com is similar to the Getitdoneapp- it lets you modify or delete everything, but is similar to the task description in doit.im.
To sum it up, everything entered in these other task/time management apps is modifiable, or delete-able. I hope you consider this option in the future. If you still are concerned that deleting comments would be a negative function for some users, you could make this an option in the settings, or utilize a delete flag to hide the comment with a show deleted comments button. At least this would be better than nothing.
Thanks again for the great product!

Need to be able to delete and edit comments (on web and iPad app). Why can't I do this?

This seems like an absolute requirement.
It was asked before in the forums, and the response was that it would cause problems if a task was sent to another user, they followed the comment, and the original task creator deleted the comment. This is a poor excuse for not having this functionality. If this is a problem, then just have a deleted comment flag, with a "Show Deleted Comments" button.
There are too many reasons why users need to be able to delete or edit a comment, most of them are common sense, so I don't think I need to provide rationale for the need. Users requested and need this feature.
I have to say thanks for the great product. It exceeds others I have tried, and has great features I didn't know I needed, such as the Do It Now lightning flag. Keep up the great work! (I will be buying an annual membership for sure, just can't recommend this product for my organization until the delete/edit comment feature is added. It is too much work to have to delete a task and create a new one, just to delete a comment.)

Interesting, the first thing I noticed after posting, was the big huge red "Delete" button on the bottom of my post. Reason enough to add the feature to task's comments? :-)
